According to official figures released on August 17, 2022, British consumer price inflation soared to 10.1% in July. This is the highest consumer price inflation figure since February 1982.
Per Press TV , this was a marked increase from June’s number, which stood at 9.4%. This increase in inflation topped economists’ projections in a Reuters poll for inflation, where they expected inflation to rise to 9.8% in July. Earlier in August, the Bank of England raised its principal interest rate from 0.5% to 1.75%.
Economic forecasts for inflation are projected to be at 13.3% in October. As Press TV pointed out, this is “when regulated household energy prices are next due to rise.”
“Every upward inflation surprise tightens the bind the BoE finds itself in, with mounting inflation pressure combined with growing recessionary headwinds,” declared Luke Bartholomew, senior economist at abrdn.
Like most economists, Bartholomew believes that the Bank of England will raise interest rates to 2.25% during its next meeting in September.
August 17 figures from the Office for National Statistics indicated that prices increased 0.6% in July from June on a non-seasonally adjusted basis.
The annual rate of retail price inflation reached 12.3%, the highest figure since March 1981.
Since Russia launched its special military operation into Ukraine on February 24, 2022, the Collective West has launched a number of self-destructive economic sanctions against Russia. The combination of these sanctions coupled with Wuhan virus lockdowns that threw supply chain systems out of whack and easy money policies have created the conditions for mass inflation. This is a widespread trend across the West. After all, the ruling classes of these countries hold uniformly pro-technocratic beliefs on economic affairs that consist of big spending and loose monetary policies.Ultimately, inflation is a question of domestic policy that most Western leaders are not willing to confront in a […]

Yes, We Need Your Help
I hate being “that guy” who asks people to donate because I think our conservative news network is so crucial, but here I am…
When I left my cushy corporate job in 2017, I did so knowing that my family would have to make sacrifices. But I couldn’t continue to watch the nation slip into oblivion and was inspired by President Trump’s willingness to fight the good fight even at his own personal expense. What I didn’t realize then is that conservative media would be so heavily attacked, canceled, and defunded that the sacrifices would be extreme.
Many in this nation are struggling right now even though we weren’t struggling just a few years ago. I’m not alone. But I wake up every morning and operate the sites we’ve been able to build because there’s really no other choice. I refuse to be beholden to Big Tech like so many other conservative news outlets, which is why you won’t see Google ads here. With that said, it’s often challenging to pay the bills and it’s even harder to expand so we can get the America First message out to a wider audience.
The economic downturn has forced me to make a plea for help. Between cancel culture, lockdowns, and diminishing ad revenue, we need financial assistance in order to continue to spread the truth. We ask all who have the means, please donate through our Giving Fuel. Your generosity is what keeps these sites running and allows us to expand our reach so the truth can get to the masses. We’ve had great success in growing but we know we can do more with your assistance.
We currently operate:
- NOQ Report
- Conservative Playlist
- Uncanceled News
- Based Underground
- Five other conservative news sites
I would even be willing to entertain investments and partnerships at this stage. I’ve turned them down in the past because editorial purity is extremely important. I’ll turn them down again if anyone wants us to start supporting RINOs or avoid “taboo” topics like voter fraud, vaccines, or transgender supremacy. But I’d talk to fellow America First patriots who want to help any (or all) of our 10 news sites. Hit me up at jdrucker (at) substack (dot) com if you’re interested.
For those who have the means and just want to help keep the mission of spreading a conservative, Christian message to the nation, please consider a generous donation.
