Emergency Energy Bill - Invest in the UK now rather than overseas next winter
Implement measures to soften huge energy prices next winter and give the UK long term stability and independence of energy production - invest now to best prepare the UK for next winter and reduce hardship
See policies here: https://energy-emergency.co.uk
This is not an argument about fossil fuels
We are walking into an energy crisis next winter where people and industry will be crippled by enormous energy prices; this will be a triple blow as 1) people and businesses will not be able to afford the energy prices and will result in huge hardship, 2) there will need to be drastic government support and 3) the money will go overseas. The government has just 8 months before the next winter to implement measures to prepare, protect and support its citizens - invest now to reduce the cost later
You can't sign this petition because it was rejected. But you can still comment on it here at Repetition.me!
The Government e-Petitions Team gave the following reason:
A petition has to ask for a clear action from the UK Government or Parliament. While we can see that you'd like the Government to take action on rising costs of energy, it's not clear exactly what you'd like the Government to do.
We've published lots of petitions on the rising costs of energy which you might like to sign. We cannot accept a new petition when we already have one about a very similar issue.
