Gary Brooke, ManchesterUtility companies are cash cows for foreign equity funds. Frankly, it’s mad.
Dorothy Joyce Cox, PooleKeep power prices down and cut down on dividends to shareholders.
Louis Loizou, BrightonPublic utilities should never have been privatised. The Big Six are becoming more expensive because they are not exploiting renewables.
Richard Lock, DorkingIt’s about time something like this came up. I agree wholeheartedly and wish every success to the campaign, which I will follow and support.
Professor Okullu-Ayor Vincent, Kampala, UgandaOur broad intervention strategies are: 1. Poverty eradication. 2. Food security and nutrition. 3. Health and population dynamics. 4. Education. 5. Gender Equality.
Howard Badder, IlkestonStop the rip-off.
Hugh Terry, Reading21st-century government has a duty to provide all its citizens with heat and light at a fair price. Ability to pay should make no difference to this basic human right.
Elizabeth Walthew, DunsThings that everyone needs to survive should not be subject to profits for a few.
Michael Burt, PlymouthGive the people their utilities back. They’re too important for the privateers to own.
Mary Jackson, DoncasterRe-nationalise all public utilities.
Jim Roche, LeedsEnergy, rail and health are strategic resources that should be government controlled. We’ve already got health, so there are two to go.
Elvis Dutton, BathAbout damn time. Let’s hope many more signatures follow.
Mike Attewell, DurhamWhere is the competition? Even Cameron called it a cartel.
G E, BeckenhamThis and every other essential utility should be returned to public ownership.
Patricia Borlenghi, ManningtreePrivatisation instead of state monopoly was meant to lead to competition and lower prices for consumers. This hasn’t happened and rich bosses make even more profit.
Marjorie Arnold, WiganEnergy should not be in the hands of foreign companies. We the people should own it. France and Germany would never privatise strategic industries.
Anne Callaghan, BlantyreAll utilities should be publicly owned and run for the benefit of the public not shareholders, with profits ploughed back in for everyone’s benefit.
Jennifer Gray, BristolRe-nationalise all energy.
Roger Dickings, PeterboroughIt’s plain common sense.
Michael Lawson, Borehamwoodobviously privatisation has been a disaster. All the evidence is there. Thatcher was wrong. We need a proper left wing spokesman to highlight this.
Shan Oakes, BeverleyEnergy is too important to be a wealth provider for shareholders of private companies.
David Lyons, AylesburyOf all the public services this has the strongest link between modern day human needs and climate change. We cannot leave it to the greedy pigs to manage.
Malcolm Duckworth, PrestonIf we are all in this together then why aren’t the profits to shareholders falling?
Daniel Rolles, DartfordWhy don’t they learn?
Elaine Whybrow, DartfordIt’s about time we stopped foreign countries buying into us and ripping out our roots.
Antony Silson, KeighleyYou know it makes sense.
John Ellison, LeicesterPrivatisation has failed the people. These must be brought back under state control.
Annalise Richter, SwanseaI agree we need not-for-profit, but with a good business structure of course.
David Line, LutonAn efficiently run and publicly accountable energy provider must be better than a pure profit model.
Mike Higgins, MinsterleySomething as essential as power generation should not be in the hands of people whose only interest is in short term shareholder gain.
