Supermarket chain Morrisons has once again seen an increase in their prices which has led to angry shoppers accusing them of "taking the mick".
A weekly shopping comparison from The MEN has been focusing on the prices of eight essential grocery basics - including bread and milk - for the past few months. The comparison has found that the prices had risen across all items at six major supermarkets week after week.
Shopping at Tesco, Aldi, Asda, Lidl, Sainsbury's and Morrisons, it was found that the latter had been making the most waves amongst shoppers as it had risen from the cheapest supermarket to the most expensive.
Rising from £9.78 at the end of May up to £11.15 by July - mainly due to meat prices - Morrisons 500g pack of mince is also the most expensive of the lot at £2.19 and its 300g pack of chicken breast the second most expensive at £2.49.
And now shoppers face even higher prices on their weekly shop, as the bill has increased once again after a 250g block of butter rose from £1.75 up to £1.99 - a hike of almost 14% and bakes beans rose from 25p to 29p.
The comparison also had to adjust the price of the supermarket's cheapest loaf of bread after they requested the cheapest 800g loaf and were sent the pro rata cost of its Savers loaf, which is smaller at 720g.
Shoppers are less than impressed with the price hikes. "They're really taking the mick now," said one loyal Morrisons customer. "I've shopped there for years, but the prices seem to be going up more than anywhere else. It feels like they're laughing at us."
Another said: "I know prices are going up everywhere, but there seems no end to it. I like the quality of Morrisons products, but I can't keep paying more."
It comes after the same comparison finding that

which prompted the recent cancellation of the Atlanta festival Music Midtown, has now said that he wishes to “challenge” the live music promoter’s firearms ban inside its Georgia venues.The annual festival, which had been due to welcome the likes of My Chemical Romance, Jack White and Future from September 17-18, cancelled its 2022 edition earlier this month “due to circumstances beyond our control”.Billboard subsequently reported that recent changes to Georgia’s gun laws, which prevented Music Midtown’s owner Live Nation from banning festivalgoers from bringing guns on to the publicly owned festival grounds at Piedmont Park, were “the likely cause” for the cancellation.In a new interview with Billboard, Georgia IT worker, author and vocal gun rights activist Phillip Evans recalled how, in the weeks before the cancellation, he warned a contractor hired to handle security at Music Midtown that “should any member of your security team accost a legal carrier of weapons … [then] your company (and any involved individual) could be sued for damages”.“I urge you to honour and follow our state weapons law here in Georgia,” he added.A post shared by Music Midtown (@musicmidtown)Evans has now told Billboard that he never pushed for Music Midtown’s cancellation, and that he didn’t expect Live Nation to pull the plug on the event.“There’s nothing in my blog, in my opinion, that indicates I celebrated the decision,” he added. “I would’ve actually been thrilled had Live Nation gone ahead and had the event and said that they were following state law.”Describing himself as a “hardcore music fan” who “loves all kind of music from all eras”, Evans says that he wants Live Nation to “abide by a law”.

A film about the life and death of Emmett Till – the 14-year-old whose gruesome lynching in 1955 helped galvanize the civil rights movement – had been in the works for decades before it found its way to Chinonye Chukwu, but all it took was an empowering thumbs up from James Bond film franchise producer Barbara Broccoli to convince her to take on the task.Writer-director Chukwu had just premiered her 2019 film “Clemency” when Broccoli approached her with a new project. Three years later, Chukwu recalled Broccoli’s 10 “magic words” that sealed the deal: “‘You can take this in whatever creative direction you want.'”Granted full artistic license, she chose Emmett’s mother Mamie Till Mobley as the film’s narrative vessel, and thus “Till” was born.“The story I was interested in telling is the person who was responsible for telling this story,” Chukwu said of the mother’s viewpoint during a virtual event on July 21.Till Mobley refused to endure her son’s historic death in silence, insisting on an open-coffin funeral so that people would have to bear witness to what he had suffered.
