UK Gas Price Crisis and More Food Problems on the Way
- ggm 5y agoThe government can (and probably will) step in to fill the energy gap by capping prices and doing back-end financial tricks to equalize the effect. The Government has already stepped in to encourage the fertilizer factories to reopen (they shut because of the cost of gas) which means C02 will be back onstream, so the killing floor problem (C02 is used to stun animals before being slaughtered) is solved. Yes, there is the brexit and like supply chain disaster. Nothing is going to fix the shortage of lorry drivers (trucks are lorries in the UK) except wages, and wages are driving council service drivers away, converting the supply chain disaster on the front side, to a backside (literally)_ problem of 'not enough drivers to do garbage collection'
