@Frencheconomics I can’t reconcile the costs in construction at the moment. I am doing a small scale extension / full refurb. In Jan wholesalers material costs are going up between 5-9% depending on which firm and what material you are purchasing. It seems unjustified, can’t all be energy costs?

My own view is that UK inflation will now moderate quickly as some of the base effects of an inflationary H1 2025 (aka easy comps) coalesce with soft consumer demand. What worries me is the long-term outlook for prices. The UK still has structural inflationary problems in its energy, labour and construction markets (a compound 29% rise in prices since 2020) & unless those are addressed, it is hard to see inflation sustainably remaining at 2%

@holland_tom Try and do the architecture boat tour in Chicago if you get a chance. Very good view of the skyscrapers and history of the city. I had the pleasure of doing it at the beginning of October.

@sainsburys Charlton. You have removed your soft plastics recycling from your store. Please let me know where you would like me to put my soft plastic now? Your products still generate to much, you should ensure your customers have the option to return it.
