More money for the rich and the poor suffer.

Why do we need the money-grabbing middle men? Give us back our energy industry and plough the profits back into the infrastructure, not into the pockets of shareholders.

The utilities were sold off far too cheaply.

I think it is wrong that services that are virtually human rights are there for the purpose of making money.

It’s time we stopped treating our neighbours as competitors, and for politicians playing the electorate off against each other. Let’s come together for the common good.

Privatisation has been bad for everybody apart from the very rich. The country has gone to the dogs since things were privatised.

I campaigned against electricity privatisation when I worked in the industry and served on the NEC of the Electrical Power Engineers’ Association. I am vindicated.

It’s time for a return to non-profit utilities, providing public services in a socially and environmentally responsible manner.

These industries should never have been privatised in the first place.

Where is the competition? Even Cameron called it a cartel.

Energy is now an essential for normal living, and thus shouldn’t be run for private profits.

Energy should never have been privatised. We want it back.

Power to the people now.

How can something so vital for human life be used to make a few richer?

I totally agree with your aims.

There are those that can and those that cannot heat their homes. I’m for supporting and speaking up for those that can’t.

It’s about time this issue was brought to the fore.

Enough is enough. People first, not profit.

Nationalise. Not for profit.

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

We need affordable, sustainable, clean energy, for the common good, not private profit.

All essential services should be community assets, managed to benefit the people and not financially punish them.

Energy and energy policy should be owned and controlled by the people, not the energy companies. We need a renewable revolution, a fossil-free energy system now.

As Midnight said: The time has come. A fact’s a fact – It belongs to them. Let’s give it back.

Power for the people.

Either re-nationalise or be run as social enterprise which reinvests any excess into better infrastructure or gives to community projects.

All public services and necessities of life should belong to the people not profit-hungry corporations intent on putting profit before people.

Stop robbing your customers. How dare you raise the cost of your customers’ ordinary living expenses. You are making millions, if not billions, out of us. Shame.

This is something that should be looked at, but it won’t be easy, as money and shareholders and government are involved.

Energy is clearly not safe in private hands.
