  • It really is astonishing they've all been able to get away with these excessive profits. Ofgem has been hopeless!

    • It's not astonishing, it's calculated. Listen to the media when doctors ask for a pay rise. They're told they're being greedy and that it's "not reasonable" to ask for £20 an hour.

      Meanwhile the billionaires think that it IS reasonable to put up energy bills 200%+ and increase food prices beyond anything seen in previous generations.

      • I do agree, but this is why we have a regulator. They approved loads of new energy companies that would have failed stress tests, which we're paying for when they all went under and they should be setting a reasonable price cap.
