Energy Prices

[goats]

A short term solution that kicks the bigger problem down the road to the next PM. A big win win for energy companies all paid for by us taxpayers. Don’t suppose anyone knows who Truss’ previous employers are….?

No doubt she will act as if she’s the hero who solved the crisis whilst ignoring bills are now over double what they were last year for many people and she’s saddled the country with a £180Bn bill.

Can’t believe they are not wind falling taxing them, robbing peter to pay paul and Putin keeps on winning. Almost as bizarre as the fact Russia can keep raising the price, surely they should be barred from the international market whilst they are using it to fund an illegal occupation of another country? We might aswell get all our gas from Putins pocket rather than the 4% we actually do…..
