STOP British Gas (The great price rip off)

Additional Information

To ask the government to step in and not allow this situation to occur in the first place. The UK currently has record numbers in fuel poverty; Old people frightened to put their heating on for fear of the cost and with a further bad winter predicted, our friends at British Gas hike up their prices by a whopping 9.2%! (This after generating 11% more profits from the previous year, another staggering 606 million pounds!). It’s time to act, it’s time for a change, fat cat companies shouldn’t be allowed to hold the poor to ransom. It’s time to put the customers first! NOT the greedy shareholders!
An independent review must be made of how they justify such price hikes in light of huge profits...and made very very public!
