Why are food prices rising so fast?

Food and drink prices have risen by 4.9% over the last year, according to ONS inflation data.

Business owners have also had to grapple with a rise in the minimum wage, as well as higher employer National Insurance Contributions, which they've had to pay since April.

'Squeezed on all corners'​

Jane Matthews, operations director of the Ice Cream Farm in Cheshire, said her business is constantly having to absorb rising costs, from payroll to food to energy.

"We're being squeezed on all corners," she told BBC News. But, she added, the company was conscious that "customers' budgets are also squeezed".

Simply put, Labour's policies. And as inflation goes up, the interest rate comes down, savers worse off and everyone pays more at the till. Good old Labour, back to their grass routes. And if people think it's tough now, just wait for the next round of tax hikes.

We are currently witnessing a government grinding an economy into the ground, but there again, Labour and economics has never worked.

Inflation is a politician created process. Just like all the other "flations".

Get rid of politicians, and you get rid of 70% of the problems facing "civilized societies" as we know them.
