Abolish the daily standing charges for gas and electricity.

Petition Details

Abolish the daily standing charge for gas and electricity. It’s an unfair ‘charge’ and the energy companies do nothing that warrants this charge

Additional Information

I want the government to abolish this unfair and unwarranted daily charge. It represents a tax on our energy bills, and forced up the payments unfairly on people who use least energy
