Recession? What f*&%ing recession!
Discussion
I hate this country.
The people who give me money claim we are in recession and for the third year no pay rise.
The people that take my money keep chipping away at in any putting prices up because they "have to to remain competitive".
In the past week I have lost Sky Sports News for free on freeview and Sky put their prices up AGAIN by £1 a month just after I resign up at a set price for a year.
Just had another note through from Nationwide this time now charging 2% + £1 per transaction to withdraw money out abroad! The free withdrawals were the reason I went with them in the first place.
These people keep sneaking up the prices as they think people cant be arsed to do anything about it!
Can't wait until 20% VAT January
Anyone else being raped at the monent?!

I'm sitting rather comfortably to be honest. If you're being raped, you should call the Police. And if you don't want to pay for Sky, you don't have to...

That's like me saying you bitter and old, I'm sure you're not

I will deal with 15% and understand why - fixed mortgage will help appease my fury.

What we should be worried about is the manipulation that Gordon Brown indulged in before the election to produce a recovery.
pumping billions into the economy by printing money, profligate spending,... the real danger is inflation gets out of control.
Added to this is other pressures, from world price commodity prices going up and the weaker pound, we're seeing that at the pumps.
Andrew Lilico chief economist at the Policy Exchange, warns inflation could hit 8%
Which will mean higher interest rates.
Things could get a lot worse, if they stay this bad we'll be lucky.

Lilico is a nutter - no-one takes him seriously. Which will mean higher interest rates.
Meanwhile there isn't a chance in Hell the Gubberment will allow the official rate of inflation to hit 8% (although we on the ground comparing the cost of things such as food, utilities and petrol on a year-on-year basis know it has reached that point already).
