No idea, the Sun says it was and daily mail, the EU one says attempted

so who the fuck knows then

Wouldn't it be nice if the BBC actually did investigative journalism on this kind of thing

it would be nice to trust our national broadcaster in such times of crisis

Apparently the face mask seizure was a "misunderstanding"

Just like the trucks of hand sanitizer they stopped yesterday

I'm pretty sure this wasnt an increase in demand

From what I've been told stock is being rationed out

In the shops

I think what we are seeing is people increasingly desperate to get supplies from major supermarkets

That are lowering offerings/supplies driving further panic

Just raise prices through the roof ffs

The government won't let them

I told people price gouging is good, even in a situation like this, but they don't wanna listen cause "fuck you capitalist pig"

Depends, price as a method to balance supply and demand is good

People hoarding and buying to resell at a profit isn't so good

There's no difference

There is

It's literally the same thing, only the money goes elsewhere

No it isn't, it doesn't matter who sells

No, it's different or I wouldn't have been able to describe it

No it's not different, only who profits is different

Bruh

End this fuckry

No

It's different

It's not

im sorry but buying places out of vital things in an emergency to sell back to desperate people at a huge markup is shitty and just gives the commies more ammo and makes them look like they have a point

The supply was sufficient and someone takes it all to price gouge

It's different

Anyway I'm outie

🕊️

its forging artificial sacristy to profiteer

I can't remember

A raises price of product from 5 to 10 -> B purchases product = A profits 10 and B spends 10.
A sells product to C for 5 -> C raises price of product to 10 -> B purchases product = A profits 5 and C profits 5 and B spends 10.
Literally no difference for the consumer.
