    Didn't they go up even more last year? The government are going to find it harder and harder to fiddle the official inflation rate at 5%, unless we can heat our homes with iPads and eat iPads on iPad toast.

          Still, at least wages are going down as fast as price are going up, so it all balances out. Thank goodness for mass immigration, we have never had it so good.

                    My local woodlands are going to end up barren wastelands devoid of combustible woody material if this keeps up. You'll be seeing people furtively nipping into the woods carry empty bags at dusk, only to reappear again curiously burdened with bags that are quickly heaved into the boots of their cars, while others cart off their booty using Tesco trolleys.
