UK Politics
General Discussion for politics in the UK.
Please don't post to both [email protected] and [email protected] .
Pick the most appropriate, and put it there.
Posts should be related to UK-centric politics, and should be either a link to a reputable news source for news, or a text post on this community.
Opinion pieces are also allowed, provided they are not misleading/misrepresented/drivel, and have proper sources.
If you think "reputable news source" needs some definition, by all means start a meta thread. (These things should be publicly discussed)
Posts should be manually submitted, not by bot. Link titles should not be editorialised.
Disappointing comments will generally be left to fester in ratio, outright horrible comments will be removed.
Message the mods if you feel something really should be removed, or if a user seems to have a pattern of awful comments.
[email protected] appears to have vanished! We can still see cached content from this link, but goodbye I guess! :'(

I'm wondering if that is still what's happening here. All the markets are still reacting to the huge price increases caused by the one off event.
Things like a business increasing prices, a competitor then realising their making less money than peer businesses etc. This all takes time to slow down and all affects the value of things. People will also be having pay reviews at different times (particularly contractors) and therefore labour costs will increase in a trickle rather than in one big swing.
Therefore, it doesn't seem impossible that inflation will slow down on its own, but I'm no economist.
