RE: The English Rebellion: Part 1 - Catastrophe. 'We're cooked'.

I was listening to someone comparing what's happening with the British economy to Argentina. Government and its spending getting so big that what's left of the private sector income isn't enough to fund it, so inflation is the only way to. I see the same happening here too. Most of the people I know have jobs either directly in government or funded by government.

My mum's energy price was only £45/month for 2022. It's £105 now for the same house and setup.

And it wasn't long ago that they were saying South Australia had the highest energy prices in the world. Sounds like Britain has caught up to if not overtaken us. Hard to calculate, because we have solar as well which offsets our usage from the grid, but I'd say about the equivalent of £60 per month for a family of 3 even though we're producing 4 times what we use in summer and still probably covering what we use in winter. Too many people have solar now, so they're barely paying anything for what's fed into the grid.
