RE: Interest Rates Could Fall More Quickly4 Oct 2024 07:59
Since the late 1700s, interest rates in the UK have been at 5% for the majority of the time and frankly they should stay there now. By using the 'phoney' cpi measure of inflation, cpi the government is conning the people and making us all poorer in the long run. Just research prices in the 1970s and since 1974, you will see most things that people depend on; housing, food, cars etc have gone up 20x whereas inflation is officially 10X and wages not much better and that is why we all feel and are poorer than in the recent past.
