Understanding commodity price changes impacting industries is always essential for Econ students. A lot to unpack for A level Economists.. but less to unpack for meat eating consumers. BBC News - Gas price rise: US boss holds crisis gas talks with UK

Yes, we are now seeing some proper wage growth in the sectors reporting hiring difficulties. But (i) it’s not *super* fast and (ii) it’s limited to a few sectors.

Multi-Nationals do what they want - until they're stopped. 👏Morocco for fining Switzerland's Nestlé -the world's largest food company - US$111.5million, after Nestlé Morocco illegally transferred profits out of the country to pay less tax on earnings. https://t.co/b66QJw0Wid

Rarely can my reaction to a chart be summed up with the word “wow”. But wow.

Negative consequences of UK's current account deficit are; 1) Drag on growth, negative (X-M) means lower AD 2) Borrowing and debt to finance it 3) Downward pressure on the exchange rate which stokes inflation

[EconplusDal @econplusdal]

UK's current account deficit stands at approx. 4% GDP (the long term average) driven by a huge trade deficit. Major long term causes have been; 1) Strong incomes domestically 2) Low Productivity 3) High relative minimum wages 4) Poor investment 5) Weak manufacturing base
