    I don't think a bloke could run a brothel efficiently. Would never leave the test phase.

      Pah! You'd hire a fat Russian babushka to run it, of course. What's your mum up to nowadays, atw?
      Hard Brexit now!

          It's a business proposition. She runs my, er, house of fun for 10% of the takings. Ok make it 15% as she has to support her useless, feckless son.

            Unlikely. She is earning very good money right now, makes it hard for her to decide to retire actually.

              If house price inflation were included in the politically arrived at inflation figure, we might achieve deflation. Except in real terms. This is presumably much better than just low inflation and would be a remarkable achievement for a labour government that usually leaves the economy in such a mess?

                Rents and morgage payments should have been included into official inflation figures.

                Plasma TVs and such have no place in inflation index.

                  Problem is property is considered a capital asset in the UK and the majority are owners. No government would like capital asset prices to fall.
