The latest way to enjoy meat without harming animals.
How safe is it? IMHO safer than world starvation.

Does anyone dare to make a chart for 2019-2020?
Note that the unemployment expenditure is very low compared to other costs in this chart.
I’m Not Ignoring You Bank of England
I have seen the inflation excuses on the Bank of England website. I’m not ignoring the comments about the economy. Though, you’ve left out ‘Too many people.’ in your reasons for an increase in normally expected rates of inflation.
There must be a ceiling on total population, by the way. Are we there now?
Good luck with the interest rate raises. Wait until April after the tax year. Don’t start in January or February because families with children do a Christmas catch-up and others suffer heating bills. At least people will be on the street in the summertime.
When I had my mortgage at a time I had a house years ago I started on high interest and clipped the start of the low-interest rates and the difference in rates took a mortgage of about £700 and made it £250 per month (a difference of £450). That was great! Going the other way would be hellish. A good reason not to own a house with a mortgage <straight face>. (Although I don’t currently have a house at all.)
The benefit of interest rate increases is savings accounts. Who can afford savings? Only super evil people having more money than they need to survive. That is a mantra from Devon.
Housing Numbers
Aprox. 27 million residential properties across the UK, including 1 bedroom and up.
Aprox. 67 million people in the UK (all ages).
67 / 27 = 2.4 people per property. Threesomes are in then? That number sounds familiar from a soap opera/TV series, “2point4 Children“.
The correct calculation for a living wage would have to be based on 1 person in single accommodation. Whereby a one-bedroom place would be achievable, then having a second person would be a benefit, not a forced situation. Especially for people that get stuck in a relationship that is not working for them.
There are two problems:
(1) Not enough accommodation for the population. Caused by a too higher number of people.
(2) The accommodation is too higher a price compared to earnings. Caused by demand, a result of having too higher population.

What about the pod idea from Japan used in the USA?
See this about Los Angeles: (Not cheap though so how much does that help?)
