The most positive piece of news. All power to Jack Monroe for drawing attention to a terrible situation & getting it fixed.
@johnjohnston I had a similar situation today. A cheese that used to cost 69,90kr suddenly jumped up to 99,90kr, that’s like 40% or something. This in addition to a 3x increase of electricity, and added inconvenience of effect-tariff, so the poorest have to carefully chose odd times for cooking and washing clothes and turning down the heat.
@odd in the UK supermarkets pushed up the prices of the cheapest foods much more than the more expensive. I certainly did not notice. I am not rich but don’t have to buy the cheapest. The way we measure inflation missed this completely until Jack Munroe publicised it.
