Dont worry we will see the benefits of Brexit soon and be far better off.😂😂
The well meaning green levy on bills has not helped and been there for a very long time .
Ed of the Milliband is the reason bills shooting through the roof its a hidden subsidies each household pays every year , adds £132 to the average bill and yes ad precited will almost double by 2020
There were laods of warinings about this Govermnent to sacred to act as the green and oppostion lobby will accuse them of going back on the claimste deal .
Another area the subsidy funds things like wind power and when we don't have winds we need something else to fill the demand so it becomes infective subsidy in those times , it pushes us back to other solutions the green lobby don't wanted .
Happy days for the poor as the elite greens can afford it .
Like party gate if I was Boris id put tow fingers up and suspend the bloody thinbg in these difficula times .

Work that one out.....
Surely the gas prices rise will stabilise sometime in the next year or so, I imagine a lot of people will find the extra £600 along with food price rises etc making life a bit more difficult. Isn’t this one of Putins games he’s playing with the west? Hiking up his gas prices? Why are we reliant on the Russians for gas anyway?
