/While any action to keep a lid on the pace of price rises will be broadly welcomed by the
government, financial markets are likely to question not only the
speed of the Bank's tightening but also the Truss administration's approach to stimulating economic growth
through tax cuts and energy bill bailouts for households and
businesses.
Investors are worried about the levels of government borrowing ahead/
That decision not to implement the additional windfall tax and instead saddle taxpayers with it for a generation is gonna come back to haunt Truss.

Britains new Pm, elevated into office, without the voting public had better get her tin hat on with the mess Boris left the Country in. High energy prices,
strikes, a failing NHS , inflated food prices high petrol costs and now a recession. His cronies will get richer with the high interest rates on the taxpayers money he gave to them , whilst the poor will get poorer

What I don't understand (I really don't) is how they come to an inflation figure of 9.9%. Prices for most things have risen by at least 25%, in some instances, items at the supermarket have increased by 100%. In the past week, the price of milk has risen by 50%. With the increase in energy prices, this will be passed on to the comsumer, me and thee, so actually, energy prices for us, the great unwashed, will be double, or thereabouts. Where are we going to get the money from to pay for this? The govt should be preventing these increases, not reacting to them.

//I think any sane individual knows that if we have just barely dipped into recession then that is down to world events that no government has control over.//
But as I’d already pointed out the government could have eased the burden with the windfall tax.
Instead they put corporate greed above the needs of the many in austerity, but then you’d expect nothing less from a former Shell employee who also had £100,000 donated to her campaign by the wife of a former BP bosses wife.
It’s already clear where her priorities lie…..and it ain’t with the British public.
