Ok, I concede that point. 
 

 

 

It's 9.3% here in Sweden, down from 9.7% the previous month. 

 

The difference is that the cost of living crisis isn't really talked about, with the notable exception of electricity. I think that people aren't as close to the bread line here. Maybe it's better hidden though. Who knows!

So Norway being a non-EU country has a far lower rate of inflation than its neighbouring EU member? 
 

It’s almost as if inflation is not Brexit related. 🤣
 

Or rather, having a low/lower rate of inflation within Europe is not contingent on being in the EU.

Did you take your accountant to court over that?

No 

Accountant was not  to blame it was more a very well written ( not good for me but good for the agency and client) contract that caused the issues. 
5 years of accounts submitted and passed off without problem, and taxes paid up to date etc, the instigator of the whole Hmrc investigation was believe it or not our beloved union the RMT £22 a month subs too 🤷‍♂️

No one’s saying Covid hasn’t been an economic disaster, but Brexit has influenced it as well. The same Government who led us into Brexit is the same lying scum that led us into Covid, or have you forgotten that?

Why would I have forgotten anything 🤷‍♂️. The government didn’t vote for Brexit in case you hadn’t realised, it was we the people who did so in a democratic process. Covid measures implemented by the current government were 100% supported by all parties and as often as not those other parties demanded we go further for longer in all respects regards restrictions and support ie furlough and grants etc etc. The mugs who blindly swallowed and backed the covid bollocks led themselves into that farcical mess.

The same incompetent government that led us through Covid are the same government overseeing and implementing Brexit, some folk are quickly becoming the Skyhucks of the Brexit world.

Norway has far closer ties to the EU than the UK does, or is seeking to have.
