Food / Poland-Tea or coffee land? [165]
Commodity traders buying it all up years in advance and betting on future prices. Every time an investor speculates/gambles, money comes out and has to be paid in the end.
That and some bad weather in South America and supply chain issues globally.
Most non-Chinese imports will be getting dearer.
I wonder why that would be? The EU regulations?

The Atlee government took office in wartime. When peace came (and food rations actually decreased due to having to feed north Germany) the economy was in such a crisis that they had to rationalise a lot of industries as well as building huge numbers of houses and flats,and thousands of schools.Building the NHS was pretty big too, and in the same year giving independence to India. The Tories would have tried hold on for years like France with Algeria and as little dignity as them. Plus two decades of decolonisation that followed.

Even before the war was over. He was hugely popular. If people could have had him leading a Labour government, they would have had that happily.
People wanted change; they wanted less of the class system, better working conditions, housing and healthcare for everyone. Churchill though was still popular. It wasn't about him, it was about his party.
Churchills government wasn't considered decent. He got outed the second the war was over

Religious groups were.
Never forget that one of the things that took the wind out of Pope Benedict's sails is that we may be very close (and closer by the day) to the Mystery of Iniquity. RC priests have long been forbidden to speculate openly on any specific ideas they may have about this, however there are worrying trends emerging at the moment.
Church was the precursor of free and compulsory education

Sadly, the gap between rich and poor is large, and a certain class of people are very good indeed at taking it all for themselves.
They even opposed free compulsory education. It frightened them to think that their servants may one day be able to read and think critically.
people in the richest country of the world working two jobs and still struggling financially?

Just deluded.
Prices have risen and will continue to rise and they'll still have a massive trade deficit.
And manufacturing will not return there.

And now, having cheered the tariffs, they're whining about the price rises that were always going to come.
It's as if there's a blind spot about corporatism and fascism being near identical.

And you aren't in Kętrzyn either, which is where the OP was asking for advice about.
Ther are very few of those (I'm not even sure I know any, except maybe a lady in London who is a slightly weird spinster doctor) though there are a lot of people who realise that this is a growing issue that will only increase and actually feel quite stressed when people keep moaning about it from armchairs while not actually doing anything.
Like migration or not, feeding and clothing someone is a basic.
Well I'm not a catholic (or christian) so I don't feel any moral obligation

In the two parts of Europe where I have homes, Mazowsze and Yorkshire, the foreign born population are more likely to be working and paying taxes than the non-foreign born population.
What about cutting the poorest some slack and going after the people making more money from workers wages than the workers themselves?
The OP only wanted food and clothes, and given that Poland is a Catholic country where people are morally obliged to feed the hungry and clothe the naked, his request for alms is not an unreasonable one.

The last time statesmen (particularly Blair and Clinton) proposed a jubilee on foreign debt, the rightwing screamed the house down because it would make their bankster backers less obscenely rich.
Elon Musk's wife would have to buy a dress for $35,000 instead of $40,000 and the middle class minor shareholders of the banks would have to shop at Carrefour instead of Piotr i Paweł. My heart bleeds for them.
I wonder what would happen if all the countries simply told the banks to f*ck off and stopped paying their "debt".
