State ‘powerless to stop no-deal Brexit price rises’
Shoppers and struggling households risk being exploited by massive price hikes on foods, clothes and other everyday items due to the “inevitable” threat of price gouging after a no-deal Brexit.
Consumers Association of Ireland chief executive Dermott Jewell issued the warning and said the Government will be powerless to stop the price hikes because it is blocked from drawing up clear price control laws.
