Here's an interesting spreadsheet, it's the energy bill for one of the buildings that my local brewery Siren owns, note the increase from roughly £1200 per month in the first half of the year to £6000 per month in the second half. I'm not sure that many low margin businesses could absorb or even cope with this kind of increase, it's going to be a difficult Winter for everyone involved in running a company, and, it's worth remembering that when crazy rises in costs happen like this there's typically only one ultimate place that the bill gets settled, and that's from the pockets of you and I.
