On the one hand, they say inflation (CPI) is only at 2.2%, yet on the other they say that there is a rise in the cost of living > 2.2%. Hrmm!
Real Inflation (not even RPI) is running at something like 9%, and everyone in this country is getting screwed over in a variety of ways.
In Bill Hicks terms, "Go back to sleep America (UK) you're goverment is in control. Here's Gladiators, watch this - go back to bed and shut up"
Until stuff actually annoys the majority of the population, they don't give a crap about losing freedoms, economic bubbles or bad goverment policies. We're only got ourselves to blame for letting things get into this state.
No chance of a revolution in this country. Everyones too busy selfishly looking after their own interests, just like the politicians.
