Inflation is now dropping at its fastest rate for 16 years thanks to falling fuel prices. But despite this the cost of a typical shopping basket leapt to 21.3 per cent in November – adding more than £1,100 a year to family grocery bills. Are the supermarkets ripping us off by not passing on price reductions?
the only people to blame are ourselves we put the idiots into power cos we believed their lies. but what we have to ask ourselves again is can we trust another party. In my opinion all politicians are tarred with the same brush. Maybe we should get the vote right so no one party has an overall majority

Mick from Manchester: the number of pence in the pound changed from 240 to 100 but each New Pence was worth 2.4 times an old penny; net result...no change in value of the pound itself and one penny bought more than twice what it did before. No wonder we all get ripped off if the powers that be reckon this is the average citizen's understanding of basic arithmetic!!!
Massive inflation in the 1970s was the result of massive hikes in the price of oil, just like it has been over the last couple of years, not the result of decimalisation...the lessons of history.
