A way of “bedding in” the rise now so people will just accept it. It’s absolutely shocking

Nasty My Corbyn wanted to take the national grid back into public ownership.He also wanted to set up an energy company similar to EDF in France where energy increases were limited to 4%.

Did Mr Corbyn also want to build lots of nuclear power stations?

Don’t worry I’m sure CCMBs very own Martin Lewis, Life on Mars, will be on to share some more money saving tips and to defend his beloved Tories.

Already seen someone on Facebook saying we'd be eating our own pets under Corbyn, honestly this country is thick as shit.

Yep if only they'd let him plant those magic beans for the magic money tree's we'd have been in clover by now.

It is terrible by the way, but governments can't anticipate Russian invations and most of the World face the same issues, at a time when the after affects of Covid and the Global economy transportation issues, hit at the same time it's going to be a tough year or two!

Can Drakeford implement a windfall tax? Does he have control over energy policy?

No but he has control of the NHS which is failing badly, but hey thats not important he had longer lockdowns than England and was able to slow down the welsh economy to a greater extent than England could.

Incredible whataboutery. The NHS is failing because its had 12 years of austerity. Wales has also had budget cuts handed to it by Westminster meaning all services struggle.

Im honestly pissing myself laughing at this pathetic attempt to change the subject.

I remember back in the late 80’s when the Tory privatisations started going through. There were not many willing to stand up for keeping utilities nationalised. Things are very different now.

Anyone who votes Tory is culpable for this mess. It’s beyond a joke and how any normal person thinks they’ve got their best interests at heart is beyond me

Prices were going through the roof before Russia invaded Ukraine. It hasn’t helped but it isn’t the reason why prices are so high.

Just going to ignore everything I said about austerity and budget cuts? You going to respond to my point of Drakeford not having any control over windfall taxes or energy policy or you going to keep deflecting?
