Clarity from government would be of real help on:
✔️ energy support beyond April
✔️ economic policies inc investment incentives
✔️ regulatory reform to ensure unnecessary costs aren't imposed on businesses and shoppers

[Karen Betts @KarenEBetts]

Sobering news with food & drink price #inflation hitting 14.6% - its highest level since 1980. Manufacturers doing all they can to contain price rises, but are dealing with massive rises in the cost of ingredients, energy, packaging etc.

We live in an interconnected world. War in #Ukraine, on top of global supply chain disruption caused by #COVID-19, means food price inflation in the UK.
