Brits urged to stockpile as inflation comes down to 2.3% | Jeremy Vine 

The UK is an embarrassment

How to tell you nuclear war is coming without telling you🤔

Lies, Damn Lies & facts. What is not talked about is that prices are now 20% higher than they were in 2021.

I am from the government & I am here to help....... RUN !

I would stockpile gallons of alcohol and weed

Does Rishi Sunak know something we don't know his speech was like we were at war already

That's just what we need another panic buying episode. Well done Dowden, and well done Vine for giving it air time

Can't even afford to buy my normal food never mind stockpile the s*it 😂😂😂

Food prices have risen again. What a joke !

Would Carole like to let us know where the prices have come down because it's certainly not round our end. Who the hell can afford to stockpile, people can't get through the week as it is, tell the chuffing Tories to vacate the premises ASAP.

Have you told the shops petrol stations and energy suppliers the inflation has come 😊down

and yet the media is too busy focused and deflecting on what Harry and Megan have going on instead of helping it countries people. what is the British royal family doing to help their citizens?

Supermarket prices are still through the roof . Robbers and crooks

Do people really watch this brain damage tv 😂😂

Where the hell does she shop,prices coming down 😂😂

I’ve heeded the warnings and just bought a nuclear bunker from Trotters Independent Traders and luckily he had some Peckham spring water for sale also plus if I need to flee this country he sold me a boat and even though I don’t know how to sail he’s told me not to worry he’s got an uncle who’s a old sea dog and would be more than happy to captain it for me. So in true British spirit “I’m alright Jack sod you suckers!”

Uk is just getting embarrassing this is ridiculous can wait to go to portugal at the end of the year for good

The only thing that worries me is, the fools that are going to empty the supermarkets and leave nothing for the normal people.....

We’ve been prepping for over a year now. What I can’t believe is how expensive the dirtiest good-for-the-dogs food is nowadays. Spam, corned beef, hotdogs in a tin, etc are all approx £1.50-2 per tin now, and that’s in the cheapest shops like Poundland or Food Warehouse. It’s absolutely ridiculous. That’s the stuff you’d eat when you literally had moths in your purse, but now it’s like a frigging luxury item!

These claims help nobody, everything is expensive and still on the up, they must think everyone is stupid, what a grind living in the UK has become for most of us.

stockpile , cause a shortage and price rises again , what a brilliant idea NOT

She is delusional !!

I remember when Jeremy Vine was a serious journalist!

Nice of them to let us know what they have planned....

Things are just getting more expensive at a slower rate I could not afford them last week how shall i afford them this week?

We need prices to go down not go up more slowly. The damage is already done from before, plus everyone's milking it. Cash and carry prices go up 20p on a case, but shop keepers want to put 20p on every item in that case.

Everyone should be prepping regardless!!

It just makes me laugh. I grow food - so there is my top tip. You can buy good LED lights that are very cheap to run. Ok so - you'll need to set aside some space in your home but it can be done, The plants I start in my home then gets transplanted out into containers, but dokeep some stuff indoors. I also have about 8 storage containers filled with tins, packet mash, cous cous, noodles, pasta, rice, soda drinks, tinned fruit, big tubs of coffee, tea, dried and not refridgerated milk (it has a long shelf life until you open it - then you put in the fridge and use as normal) bags of salt and sugar to name a few items. Deep in our cupboard somewhere we have a box of candals, a pack of lighters, I have tubs of yeast, flour and spices. I could go on. We could survive for about two months without ever needing to go shoppping. We consume this stuff as part of our regular food to allow for stock rotation, but we plan meals so when we buy fresh or frozen stuff we know how long it will last and have reduced FOOD WASTE to virtually nothing. You might think this sounds crazy, but don't let those with normalcy bias fool you or make you feel ashamed to plan for rougher times. Even if you stockpile against inflation. I'll give you an example - on a cheat night - there is nothing I like more than a tinned curry and rice, A few years ago I bought about 30 tins of various varieties of these curries for about a £1 - they now sell for £1.60. They are perfectly fine for many years - in theory - there will be an expiry date on them - but people have opened cans twenty years old (or more in some cases) and found the contents to be fine. I also bought a l;ot of tins of grilling pork which is nice uncooked or toasted or I've even put in cooked meal. It's a nice substitute for a proper joint of meat and also has the protein and filling factor you might need if you can't get alternatives. You don't have to make this cost a lot - just add an extra couple of iterms in with your weekly shop. Buy things you like and eat anyway. Learn how to cook from scratch if you don't already. Cooking is a basic skill that everyone should be able to do - it's like a lot of thing though - it can get complicated - but you don't need to be an expert to have the basics. Consider this - because I'm not seeing a light of light at the end of the tunnel - our leaders are out of touch and the world is getting harder. Have a plan! Good luck :)

i want a gas mask ! my room mate had curry !

Water deteriorates in bottles whereas alcohol keeps, every cloud has a silver lining.

spam is v expensive..

Stockpiling and conscription. Whats going on

My god. No wonder we are in the mess we are in. Dopey Dowden strikes again.

I didn't stockpile anything for covid as I already had about four weeks of stuff in. It's not because I thought there would be shortages or because I thought the world would end, I just grew up in the 70s and have been through water/gas/electric company strikes. As Dom says, in some countries it is standing advice to have 3 or 4 weeks worth of food/water at home. As for inflation, it going down doesn't help unless the prices drop significantly. If they don't this is like us cheering that the england team scored 8 goals while losing 14-8.. Yeah it's nice, but it didn't actual do anything for us.

What a bloody stupid thing to say, this is only going to cause mass panic, causing a shortage and food prices to increase? Well done!

Dont worry Vine has his bunker ready

Complete nonsense. The target for inflation should never be fixed at 2% anyway when the amount of money being printed goes up and output goes down, at request of the government. If you print more money, inflation will go up. Worrying people 'running the country' don't even understand such basic economics which most people would understand at A Level Maths.

4 candles...fork handles

Sounds to me like War is imminent 😢

They do like to keep people in a state of confusion do they no something we don’t 🤔

in scarborough they have posters of elvis the seagull and the poster says elvis shits on torys, simple and to the point kick them out ?

Stockpile 😅 I've managed to buy 4 toilet rolls

How gullible do you have to be? Buying items to stock pile in preparation for brown/blackouts is the same as turkeys for Christmas. Amazing that she brought gas masks in the UK.

Never ever think the glass is full.. 🙄🙄🙄🥴🥴😎

Prices well not go down ! 😢

Food prices have not come down ! Food is still going up on a weekly basis

Encouraging people to panic buy in order to state, "The economy is improving as people are buying more." 😂

I know theirs is a real shortage of medication, Epilepsy medication and insulin injections. When l put a order for them in at my doctors l ring the pharmacy and let them know,it takes two days even more if it's the weekend to order them in.

Nonsense

It makes sense to stock up for at least a few weeks, that way if there is an emergency, you do not have to spend enormous amounts of time running around like a chicken with its head cut off, competing with neighbours for goods and services.

Stopped eating spam when i heard fish that ate it turned opposition sex

Omg!!! Nanny state gone mad. D they think it's the 1930s🙄

Have not heard this from somerset England .

Stockpiling is a bad thing to do the food can go off.

These are the people that will be knocking on people doors cause they don’t have anything. They making fun of being prepared.

Most people carn’t afford to eat never mind putting something away for the future

Dont you know prices have rise everywher in the world NOt just here

Cosco has there nuke bunkers half price bought 2 one for me and one for the wife imagine 2 years free without nagging😂

The clue to the 'event' is the duck-tape. Ideas, anyone?

These things don't happen by accident, I came into office............ By accident!

Most people have a well stocked pantry 👍

This is normal in other countries. We should all have emergency supllies abd not rely solely on the Government. This doesn't mean that the Government shouldn't be responsible but it can take time to get aid. Weve already seen areas being told that they cant drink tap water in the past few weeks. Having supplies helps. Don't go crazy just add an item or two with every food shop and in a few months you'll have what you need. It could be just a tin of sardines (70p) each month.

Finland isn't Scandinavian

Viney has stocked up on loo rolls

theres always just eat app

FINLAND??? Per-lease....!

nice power outages so much for my standing charges being put to good use

Even dumbbell Dowden trying to manufacture a crisis won't save the Tories: sadder than Sunak.

Inflation apparently falls apparently than the raggy doll says spend more money greed 😂😂😂😂

Basket too heavy

I've still got all the stuff from last winter

This so-called warning is the most irresponsible thing to do.

Mad woman in the glasses 👓

Supposed to be tinned foods that DON'T need cooked, so maybe forget the Frey Bentos pies, although maybe you could put it on an open fire outside or a BBQ

What a pillock Vine is

Some nice panic buying would boost the economy a bit before election figures. Loads of us have food in.. Clean drinking water is a Hooman Right (Art 11 or 12 I think) Unless the world explodes they would have to provide tankers or standpipes.

and how are we on the breadline jeremy vine? well is sunak trying to scare us into keeping him in power longer, anything but that

It only comes down on the news such as the guardian and son one... please stop distracting people!

HELLO!!! I'M ON THE TELEVISION!!! YEAH THE JEREMY VINE SHOW!!! IT'S RUBBISH!!! CIAO!!!

inflation in lay person terms has not come down, more spin

Is that jom dolly?

Won't ever mean anything to Champagne Socialists such as Vine 😎🍾💷

Lets not

No one his got the money to do this can't afford to pay bills and the raggy dolls now saying this 😂😂😂

It’s clever by the government if we all stock piled the GDP will be a lot better for the conservatives jut before the election 😊

Another "great" idea from the "government" shut up

Vine is so boring thy producers have told him to move around and brought in props.

We have spam Werr not posh

Scare Mongering.😊
