Inflation figures in this mornings news
« on: August 27, 2012, 07:56:59 am »
Watching the news this morning and some inflation figures were given for vegetables.
Carrots have got up an incredible 48% from this time last year.
Lettuce is up a whopping 27%
Other veg is up anywhere between 10 - 20%.
Train fares are set to rise by 6.1%.
Domestic fuel is going up 9% aswell as prices set to rise at fuel pumps for cars.
The Government has inflation at 2.6%? Where do they get their figures from the lying bastards.
At this rate the gap between the rich and the poor is getting wider and wider with most people having their wage rises frozen for the coming years.
The UK is turning into a third world country in which it is gripped by poverty.

As someone who grows they're own veg i can see the price going sky high later in the year,the soil has been so wet and cold that nothing is growing as big as it should...especially green veg :(
