Generate your own energy | Tesco Greener LivingOriginally posted by MarillionFan View PostI did.
Furniture over the rest of the year. Sheesh.
Import costs have gone up by 110% over the last 5 years coupled with 20% VAT, increased business rates and lower margins.
Time to get out of high street retail and leave it to Tescos.
Renewable energy. That's what I'm looking at now. Electricity prices to double in 5 years to take the average from £1000 per year to £2000 per year per average house. There's gold him them there hills.

It is easy for the economy to recover.Originally posted by milanbenes View PostDiesel will be £1.40 a litre at Easter
George Osborne's fuel hike hits families: £70 to fill up with petrol | Mail Online
Food costs are rising
General inflation is rising
Wages are not rising
How will the public be able to start spending when their disposable income is continously shrinking ?
Here on the mainland diesel Germany/Belgium/Austria/France is about £1.05
on a 60 litre tank average Joe in the UK will pay £21 per tank more than average Joe on the mainland
if he tanks once a week, that will mean average Joe in the UK has £1000 per year less disposable income than average Joe on the mainland
£1000 per year extra disposable income per hard working working would help the economy recover from the crisis
and that's only diesel, not to mention of course food is cheaper on the mainland,
I am always surprised how for many household items, the number on the price tag is the same in the UK as the mainland, excepting the currency is different
and that folks, is why, recovery from the crisis, in the UK, is going to be slow
good luck
Milan.
BoE can just print a few more notes and use them to buy debt certificates from anyone who want to borrow some money at an artificially low rate. The borrowers will spend the borrowed money on imported goods and then the GDP will show an increase.
GDP increasing is the right way to measure economic recovery, right?

This inflation is the 'cost' of these low interest rates.
If it carries on, bond markets will start demanding higher interest rates to cover the inflation risk. I don't expect a rise today, but give it a few months and inflation will be driving rate rises.
