  • THE owner of a popular Leicester fish and chip shop has spoken out about the current cost crisis, which is being shouldered as a result of the conflict in war-torn Ukraine.
    The surging price of fish and sunflower oil, have caused the ‘worst crisis’ in the trade’s long history, it was claimed yesterday, with a combination of inflationary pressures meaning that most chip shops will be unable to serve a ‘cheap’ meal and still make a profit.

      they're not clueless ... you are .... they get / take [what is it] 30% of sales in "tax" ... 30% of £2.50 is less than 30% of £8.50.
      Plus, you may be unaware that some fish n chip shops were charging over £10 for a portion of fish n chips several years ago ... and the people selling them the fish / potatoes [or ready cut chips] oil and other stuff saw how much they were making [and bragging about] every time they made a delivery, and they wanted some of that too.
      Business is about making money ... and business is controlled by the anti-Christian scum that you probably voted for.

      I have pleasure fished out of various ports on the south coast. In the 80's and 90's cod was plentiful on the boats and the shore. Now cod is as common as rocking horse sh*t.
      Various reasons for it but the biggest cause of the demise of cod in the channel and north sea is the slight increase in sea temperature that is stopping cod spawning.

    Chips will be still around but the owners will make less changing of fat and oil so if it looks like something coming out the ground like in Kuwait they just filter and carry on using.
