To some, if it was a Labour plan it would have been treated in Terry Bramall proportions of generosity. However, because it's a Tory plan it's being treated in Ken Richardson proportions of tightbas**rdness.

The £150 is a false figure ,with the increase councils are doing it will be between £100- £80 off your council tax bill and some families on low income who don't pay council tax will get no help

Why have you come forth? Are you a likely candidate? It's like handing yourself in to prove your innocence!

Crikey they could even not show it on your bill If they chose and you'd be none the wiser. It's only news to get the government some positive views I'm not sure why you care about it to be honest?

With the war in Ukraine how high will the cost of gas and petrol go up as some reports are saying these bills could double in the coming months
Quote from: rich1471 on February 25, 2022, 08:45:11 amWith the war in Ukraine how high will the cost of gas and petrol go up as some reports are saying these bills could double in the coming months The UK gets less than 5% of it’s gas from Russia, the vast majority of UK’s gas comes from the North Sea
The UK has to buy at spot market prices because we decommissioned 75% of gas storage capacity in 2017.This makes us very vulnerable to external market variables.Gas prices also determine costs in the wider energy sector as a keynote technology.The sooner this is revised to focus on electricity the better.The increase in standing charges for both gas and electricity is nonsense on stilts, and is just naked profiteering from the energy providers.The sooner they are in public ownership, with a service provision remit, the better for everyone.There is not the slightest chance of averting rising fuel poverty across the UK under the current architecture.

We had no choice said Sunak allowing a price rise of 50%.Shell announced profits of £20 billion this morning (£900 a second) with £6 billion to be given to shareholders.The French government announched 3 weeks ago it will limit EDF's price rise to 4%, which will cost that company c£7 billion.One country looks after its population. The other looks after its shareholders.
