The Cost of Living Crisis
Don’t know about you, but I’m sick and tired of hearing these snowflake whinging cunts banging on about the ‘cost of living crisis’. The yoof of today haven’t got a fucking clue. They had it so soft for so long that they’ve nothing to compare today’s so called ‘crisis’ to.
So let’s put the poor little fuckers straight :
Petrol prices : Todays headline screaming that it will cost £81 to fill your tank. Must be a fucking big tank. But that aside, the price per litre ‘could’ soon approach £4. Let’s ignore the fact that in 2008 it peaked at £3.96
Interest rates : Shock horror – bank rate has risen to 0.5%. Fuck me, in 1979 it was 17%
Mortgage rate : Current fixed rates are high for recent times at around 6.9%. In 1979 they were 15%
Easy access savings rates : This one really pisses me off. Currently around 0.45% but not a thought for the poor fucking oldies like me. In 1980 you could get 14.5%. When I retired 18 years back, I was getting around 6.5% on my savings but never mind what that’s done to my income ‘cos old cunts don’t count
And last but not least, inflation. Let’s all throw a wobbler at 5.1% ignoring the fact that it’s base was a year decimated by Covid so not really a fair percentage to quote. As recently ago as 1990 it was running at 7.5%
And while we’re at it, don’t start me on food banks. Let them eat fucking cake! We never had food banks and we lived to tell the take. What cunt thought those up?
So what the fuck is all the fuss about. Just fuck off, get a sense of perspective and stop moaning. You parents and grandparents went through far worse and lived to tell the tale.
Know nothing, woke cunts! Run back to your safe spaces and shut the fuck up. You’re really pissing me off…
