He might want to have a word with his Prime Minister or King as both attended Bilderberg in May.

Fiscal discord
As is their custom, European finance ministers meeting in Luxembourg today and tomorrow will solemnly intone pledges to co-ordinate and synchronise economic policies for the broader good. But the reality is that economic policymaking is looking increasingly discordant, writes Sam Fleming in Brussels.
While central banks around the world are seeking to clamp down aggressively on inflation by lifting interest rates, European finance ministries have racked up a bill exceeding half a trillion euros as they pump money into schemes cushioning business and households from soaring energy prices.
Disparities in policy responses between EU member states are growing more glaring. Last week Germany unveiled a massive €200bn borrowing plan to create a “protective shield” for its households and businesses, using an off-budget facility previously used during the Covid-19 crisis.
The plan, announced on the eve of an EU energy ministers’ meeting that was meant to forge a common approach, antagonised member states that lack Germany’s deep pockets. Their anxiety echoes the mood during the early months of the pandemic, when southern member states looking to prop up businesses hobbled by lockdowns complained they lacked the kind of fiscal firepower that Berlin and other northern capitals could deploy.
Thierry Breton, the French commissioner who oversees the EU single market, was notably blunt on Twitter on Friday, saying that not all member states can borrow such handsome sums on financial markets, and that it was important to maintain a level playing field across the union.
Would you actual believe anything those countries said was for real??Quote:

Mexico's annual inflation rate rose to 8.70 percent in August of 2022 from 8.15 percent in the previous month, the highest reading since December of 2000 and slightly above expectations of 8.67 percent. Prices accelerated for both goods (10.55 percent vs.
The country's retail inflation, which is measured by the Consumer Price Index (CPI), has spiked to 7.00% in August 2022, up from 6.71% a month ago. The Wholesale Price Index (WPI), on the other hand, has shown a downward trend and dropped to 12.41% from 13.93% during the same period.5 days ago

Just like the double dip recession. Who thought making billionaires richer at the expense of everyone else would have drawbacks eh.
Not to mention we are paying 3 times more for electricity than the EU on average.

8.8% in Ireland, considerably lower than here as it has been since brexit. A better comparison too as we share the same energy supply chains and are somewhat insulated by the goings on over in mainland Europe. i.e., a warQuote:
