We pay one way or another. It’s been broadly discussed that we might have to pay more for goods/services.

We are READY/WILLING and EAGER to do just that!

You maybe willing and ready and eager to do so but I doubt the majority of the country are. Why are sales so popular why are discount stores so popular.

I am not having a go at your or anyone who is willing to pay more I say well done.

I realise there is a group that are willing to do so hence the appearance in many main stream shops of fairtrade goods often produced by multinational companies.

However I still say that the majority of people will not want to and it will reflect on whatever party is in power at the time if they have to pay more when re-election comes up.
