    I'd say it's more corruption and greed on a massive scale. Other countries aren't suffering as much as us.

    I think coronavirus and the lockdowns will have a very profound and long term social, health and economic cost.

    The Ukraine crisis right on top of it is a disaster for the west.

    This is the societal change the WEF needed to implement their plans.

    listening to R4 this am, the big topic was inflation being > 10%. The general consensus amongst economists that the driving factors were post Covid demand being far greater than supply (fuel, energy, food) and that the war in Ukraine has not helped.

    There were differing opinions on whether raising interest rates further would help or not, given the main drivers of inflation are external factors.

    How much money has the UK government given to Ukraine so far , I’m sure some of this money could have been allocated elsewhere.

    On a separate note how much weaponry worth billions was left in Afghanistan which could have been reallocated to Europe?

    Makes no sense to me.

    Correct me if I am wrong but it does appear you'd rather Putin and his cronies be allowed to run amok in Ukraine instead of the UK directly assisting? Do Chamberlain and appeasement mean nothing to you?

    Why do you think the UK government borrowing to fund Ukraine's arms impacts inflation? Inflation is based on the rise in prices of a basket of goods, and it may surprise you to find that the NLAW doesn't feature in your typical everyday basket for most of us.

    Its more about the nature of the USA departure and advanced communication to the UK , I'm sure a lot of stuff was sabotaged and to be fair was given to the Afgan government to use and defend it self ,they rolled over the rest is history , all departing armies leave behind weaponry ,some of it may well be over 16 years old :


    From CNN

    Approximately $7 billion of military equipment the US transferred to the Afghan government over the course of 16 years was left behind in Afghanistan after the US completed its withdrawal from the country in August, according to a congressionally mandated report from the US Department of Defense viewed by CNN.

    So, after 2 and a half years, you agree with the whole lockdown policy and the fact that more deaths will probably be attributed to the lockdown than the deaths it was designed to save ?

    No, I don’t believe the premise of your argument that more people’s deaths will be attributable to the lockdowns than Covid and I definitely believe that locking down was the right thing to do in Spring 2020 when we didn’t have vaccines. It doesn’t surprise me in the slightest either that even back in the first half of 2020 there were writers at the Telegraph writing anti lockdown articles - people on either side of the Brexit divide are always using it as a justification for all sorts of political conclusions and this is a case of for Brexit, read lockdowns.

    There is plenty of data available that suggests otherwise , however , what ever the rights and wrongs hopefully it won’t happen again and it’s hard to believe images like this ( which would have had zero effect in transmission) were deemed acceptable 15C5151E-9F1D-4872-8117-B016B3EF364C.jpg

    What's so unacceptable? It could have contributed to keeping many alive.

    PfizerGate: Official Government Reports prove Hundreds of Thousands of People are dying every single week due to Covid-19 Vaccination

    You were instructed to stay at home to protect the healthcare system. But while you did so, hospitals essentially had a holiday, and this is backed up by official data. You were told the answer to everyone’s prayers was to get the Covid-19 injection. But now that you have done so, the healthcare system is on the brink of collapse.

    Waiting times for ambulances are at an all-time high. The number of emergency calls due to people suffering cardiac arrest is at an all-time high. The number of people dying is at an all-time high, with hundreds of thousands of excess deaths occurring around the world every single week.

    And official Government reports prove without a shadow of a doubt that it is all thanks to the Covid-19 vaccines.

    More of the article plus graphs galore here: https://expose-news.com/2022/08/14/g...covid-vaccine/

    It is difficult for shills and apologists to dispute their beloved government's own official data which demonstrate how unsafe and ineffective and plain dangerous the clot shots are.

    Meanwhile, in the US excess deaths are currently running at over 19 thousand higher each week from their five-year average pre-Covid, and those numbers are accelerating.

    Depends on the timeframe. Year on year, they are dramatic drops.

    Has anyone had to alter their spending habits in this battle fighting inflation over and above switching to some cheaper alternatives when shopping for groceries?

    I haven't but did hit on a great, though naughty, money saving idea a few months back which I've calculated will keep almost £1k in my pocket over a year instead of in the tills of two boozers I most frequent.

    Usually I visit them four times per week and always have two double Jack Daniels, at a cost of £6.40, along with beer each time. By filling my hip flask of the same stuff purchased from a supermarket to swig instead the price of those same two doubles have dropped to £1.80.
