Ireland is coping with rising fuel, grocery, and heating prices at the moment, but there have yet to be any major shortages noted here CostOfLivingCrisis
The cost of living is on the rise across Europe as each country deals with an onslaught of price hikes.Elsewhere across Europe there are countries dealing with a whole host of other issues, like the cost of shopping rising by up to 50%, petrol stations being let run dry, and even crisp and chip shortages at local supermarkets as oil supplies dwindle.
They told the German press agency DPA, that these price increases on various products were necessary due to the rise in manufacturing costs. Edible Oils, which is the leading bottler of cooking oil for UK retailers, says it only has a number of weeks of sunflower oil stock left. Meanwhile, drivers are reporting chaos at fuel pumps in the UK, with many stations putting out signs to inform drivers they are out of diesel.
The move came as empty shelves were being seen in many supermarkets due to the combined issue of a truck drivers' strike and the Ukraine war. "We are also responding to a need that distribution companies have flagged to us which has become apparent due to the transport strike."
