      You know what it is a pity that the British people of this country today do not have as much of a backbone and balls to do what the French are doing against the actions of the French Government, the British people of the county today just sit back and get rolled over and dictated to by the MPs in this country that do not represent the British people because if they had any real backbone to speak of they would be driving the likes of those that are invading our country back to the Frech Coastline

      The point is price gouging and price fixing should be called out and punishment delivered out when it happens. The fluctuations of profit/loss made day to day isn't the issue, it's the way profits are being achieved that is the point of contention.
      It's about a group of competitors who dominate the market share working with each other to keep prices inflated rather than actually compete for customers. It's a subversion of standard market practices and an abuse of their position in a vital industry everyone depends on. Probably the second largest contributors to inflation after the oil barons.

As evidence I can point to for example Walmart trying to sell Asda and only being offered poop prices for it. As evidence I can point to tesco share price being lower today than 5 years ago. How is that possible if they are price gouging like you say
      Supermarkets make less than 6% net profit they certainly don't have monopoly margins or pricing power
      The recent inflation is down to the government printing too much money more than anything else

Try going shopping for yourself T-bag, you shouldnt need to be told that prices are through the roof and its not entirely due to supply chain costs and the rest.
