Just before we moved to Petchabun , Westgate Mall opened in Bangyai..Nonthaburi. Huge new mall. I used to go there a few minutes before opening and as soon as we were let in I used to walk around every floor in a complete circuit from ground floor to top then back down again. This was done briskly to get the heart going. Nice 5 kilometer walk in cool aircon mall. Couldn't bump into anyone if you tried in that place. Never spent a baht in there but got pretty fit. Our local ones here too small and not enough space anyway. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hence the bad exchange rate. All of the world has had to deal with covid and the Russian war on Ukraine. Brexit, Thick Lizzie and the quasi chancellor's mini budget of self-harm are the reasons why the UK finds itself in a far worse predicament than any other country. 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

"Any other country" bit of a broad statement lol, UK not even the highest in Europe for inflation, Netherlands has the top spot, Spain not far behind them. Turkey is around 80% https://www.ft.com/content/088d3368-bb8b-4ff3-9df7-a7680d4d81b2 Know one knows if the new budget will work yet, but not many countries will be immune from the global recession, maybe slashing taxes is the way to go Global debt https://www.visualcapitalist.com/global-debt-to-gdp-ratio/ Again, not in the worst position of any country 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Chomper Higgot Posted September 28, 2022 Author Share Posted September 28, 2022 (edited) Kwarteng’s unfunded tax give away to the already wealthy is biting back. Truss needs to make some tough decisions, and she’s not got long to make them. Her back bench are getting noisy, letters of no confidence are reportedly being submitted to the 1922 committee. The Tory Party conference is two weeks away and right after that she’ll be back at the dispatch box facing PM’s questions. Does she ‘tough it out’ or does she U-turn? Perhaps time to turn on Kwarteng, or even on the BoE. But she needs to decide quickly, mortgage repayment hikes are already going out in the post.
