The Price of fuel ie gas oil and electricity to the consumer appears to be priced up by the energy companies. There appears to be no action by the UK government to control prices. They appear to take the view it will reduce demand therefore improving our carbon footprint and save the embarrassment of rationing electricity and gas. If they had invested in nuclear power and alternative energy sources and insisted on gas storage systems years ago this could have been prevented.
The number of households that are victims of this pricing policy are millions.
