No Laughing Matter
Yes, yes it’s a terrible thing, if you’re worried about the price of things and the cost of living and all that. But, isn’t this amusing: if consumer price inflation hits a certain level, the Bank of England has to write a letter to the Treasury. ‘Dear Treasury, sorry about that whole inflation business. Regards, The Bank of England.’ All very refined and polite. Certainly better than those ‘Oi – give us yer business’ phonecalls that so many banks make nowadays.
