Exactly. People making billions at the detriment to everyone else. Reminds me of all the PPE contracts.

The West impose sanctions on Russia, so they don't get their Starbucks and McDonalds. Meanwhile, the cost of living for people in the West go stratospheric!

Have you seen the cost of home heating oil? Had to buy recently as run out. Cost then was £539 for 900 litres. Exactly three weeks later and it's now £1,079.

Thinking of putting a few 20 litre tubs on eBay.
