Taking energy costs as the example, you couldn't make it up.

This ridiculous minister is pinning his hopes on the weather forecast! Jeez. Btw: what's this "internal long-term forecast"? Something we plebs don't see? |
Re: Rising cost of living
For individuals, higher energy prices will directly impact when the energy cap increases and people's fixed tariffs end. So for most people, I think they won't be so impacted until April 2022 directly.
However, they will be directly impacted by costs resulting from supply-side disruption such as this: Price of chicken set to rise, UK's largest supplier warns |

Andrew, you’re absolutely right.
But you chose to avoid confirming my view of Kwasi’s pronouncement! |

Don't they have advisors who can tell the minister whether or not he'd be held up to ridicule? |

Chicken shortage?
As mentioned by the boss of a company that has made £millions, it not £billions, from employing foreign workers on low wages, has been at the center of at least two cases of quality control and working practices, and had more than one occasion where Covid ran riot. There seems to be an underlying theme with these big companies that are now struggling . . . *can you tell what it is yet?* |

The price cap just went up, and a lot of fixed tariffs will end long before April 2022. I would think most people pay monthly, and those monthly payments are going to go up long before April 2022 as well. Only a small minority will not be impacted until that far away. Quote:
