It was quite a do though, apart from the nosh, and I had a good chat with a few politicians and their private secretaries, one of whom told me that the real reason why Sunak called the early election was that letters were already coming in from the 1922 Committee to kick him out. So he went before he was pushed. It was a surprise to me, as I thought
he'd done it because inflation is down (not that you'd notice), the sun's out (sort of) and this was the best time to do it. Turns out, he was just pushed. But on the subject of inflation etc, do make sure that you keep an eye out for good 12-month deals on your gas and electricity as the price cap will come down in July and then go up again in October. Get yourself
a good fixed deal while you can. There's lots in the news about what the election could mean for your money and neither side has great news, frankly, which is why we are getting even more serious about making sure you have a decent pot saved up for your retirement.
