Yep, that plays a significant part too. But when you've got a fryer who's monthly running cost has gone from £600 to £2000 that's unsustainable.
Of course - unless your prices increase to match, which requires consumer prices to increase to match too.
My angry point is - small, independent businesses shutting down is inherent to the system as it stands.
It's all about the greedy energy generating companies sucking many many billions out of the useful economy.
