Maybe they should pass a law saying whatever they throw about can only be cleaned up using fossil fuel powered devices
fire up the petrol leaf blower!

fire up the petrol leaf blower!He's already starting to trot out excuses for failing to halve inflation now ...
... no one told him, before his promise, that people in the UK have mortgages
"Rishi Sunak blames fixed-rate mortgages over failure to curb inflation
Increasing number of home owners on multi-year deals makes task of bringing down rate challenging, PM claims."
The tories think their voters are thick as pigshit. Sunak is woefully out of depth as an electable and serious politician.
Basically self serving for the rest of the term of office he can cling onto imo.
Pension for life, police bodyguard and all his mates given OBEs ...
... he knows he can't be worse than Boris and Truss so it's a win win.
Unfortunately I can see a gaping hole in your thinking
Ditto
You missed off the bit about influence over taxation policy - close to home for him that one and clearly a priority.
Also his US options conveniently open to him.
Correct me if I’m wrong , but weren’t the profiteering food people , the petrol companies , the gas and electric et al , all ripping us off to high inflation long before the BOE put up the interest rates ?He's already starting to trot out excuses for failing to halve inflation now ...

…… and didn’t the BOE say putting mortgages up means less disposable income , therefore less spending and demand , therefore inflation reduces ?
Does nobody do any research these days?

He's turning a hung parliament into a Labour landslide which I didn't think possible ...
... I said that in jest, a while back, but the lad's doing his best.

I find it astonishing that someone who doesn’t seem to realise he is directly contradicting the BOE - was given the job of chancellor in charge of the nations finances
Harold Shipman should never have topped himself ...
... nailed on as Health Minister with this lot.
Aye not like they've had health ministers admitting they knew not what they were doing or ministers who didn't know The Channel was an important trade route.
Even had foreign ministers who thought their Leave came before getting allies out of Afghan when it fell.
How quickly we forget
The Secretary of State for Transport Chris Grayling, who handed out £13.8m to Seaborne Freight, a newly formed shipping company with no ships or employees and T&C’s lifted straight from the local takeaway restaurant.
Resulting in him being successfully sued by Eurotunnel for £33m because the contracts were secretive and not put out to tender.
All central banks use interest rates to control inflation gelders. You are right though, the theory is that high interest rates mean less money spent in an economy = more competition between business resulting in lower prices.
Rishi Sunak's popularity in Tory ‘Blue Wall’ sinks
"Prime Minister's approval rating hits lowest level in Conservative heartlands since February after plummeting to minus eight."
July 2023 • 1:00pm
Rishi Sunak branded 'weak' as he misses highest percentage of PMQs of any prime minister.
The Conservative leader has already skipped 17% of the sessions since he took power, but that will rise to 19% after he misses the next two.
