Go on I'll say it. Nationalise it, with the same price for everyone rich or poor, Shetlands or Cornwall, paying the same rates. The railways are going that way so why not energy? Tragedy of the current system is that the poorest with pre-payment meters pay most. Dickens would have had a field day... |
I'm on a pre pay meter and I'm not paying the most here, not by a long shot, I did ask them to install a normal meter just before covid struck but the installer made up some cock and ball story about why he couldn't be bothered to do it. I get the odd letter saying I could save a fiver a month if I re booked but I think sod 'em I'd rather change providers than be messed about by them again
