Mr. Brian McHugh:

It may be. We spend a lot of time with our international colleagues. Issue number one in all other countries is groceries and food inflation. I mentioned the figure of 27%. That is lower than the European average. While prices have gone up significantly - we all see it and hear about it and it is a real struggle for families - in other European countries the inflation rates are higher.
