When people are having to decide between heating and eating what does that say about modern day Britain? The more shareholders get the more they want. Greedy people.

Enough is enough of foreign companies owning our utilities and holding people to ransom.

The energy rip-off needs to end now.

I have been saying we should re-nationalise the industry for years.

It is worth trying, despite the hopelessness we all feel on these issues. See recent reports on how Iceland has resisted the power of banks and multinational corporations.

We need to empower communities. People do have power. If we want to achieve something, we the people can be the agent of change and do it ourselves.

Well done to our various governments of the last 30 years for screwing us all over and leaving themselves looked after. For shame, give us all a chance to live.

Our heating is our biggest cost nowadays.

Put profits back into services, not into shareholder pockets.

Prices are too high.

That’s it. We’ve had enough. You can push the people so far. Now we are taking our power back.

No-one should be profiting out of the essentials of life; any surplus should be going back into the public purse.

Can we trust politicians to run anything? Heaven help us.

We can but hope.

Re-nationalise it all. It should all be owned by and run for all the people – not thieves and shareholders.

I used to work in the power generation industry when it was privatised by the Tory government and we said then it would not work. How right we were.

It is time to bring them back into state hands for the good of the many not a few shareholders

Energy is infrastructure, and this is the bedrock of national security.

Return to public ownership for the people’s benefit.

Power to the little men and women.

If we are all in this together then why aren’t the profits to shareholders falling?

these are necessities not luxuries, so the price needs to be reasonable

I agree with everything except the climate change bit. I just don’t believe Al Gore and the IPCC. I put my trust in honest men not cheats.

We need services run for citizens, not private profiteers.

Energy sales need to be under state ownership again. It’s time to stop the daylight robbery we are subjected to by the Big Six energy companies. Enough is enough.

Stop making a profit from you own people.

Let’s take back what was stolen from us.

Where consumer essentials are concerned, profit adds to the cost. Re-nationalisation of power is necessary.

Stop extortionate bills. Also stop extortionate estimates that neither reflect the consumption of energy or make clear that they are only estimates.

It should never have been privatised in the first place.
