We want the government to stop Ofgem from releasing the price cap in October.
we the working class and families on low income call upon parliament to stop Ofgem from releasing the price cap in October.
the cost of living has got out of control under the conservative government energy companies, are making billions in profits while hard up families skip meals and starve.
we the hard working people of the uk should not have to pay for the conservative government mistakes for not providing cheaper energy alternatives such Renewables or nuclear energy. or even nationalise one single energy company so the people have a choice of affordable energy. We are demanding a reduction of energy bills to an affordable level Now.
And with news that energy bills could ramp up to £4,000 next year, this situation has got out of control we call upon labour and others to help.
