Privatisation 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.

We are the majority, ordinary working people reduced to living hand to mouth. This is the reality.

Energy for public good not private profit.

Power back to the people in a not-for-profit company.

Let the voices of the people be heard.

I too support the re-nationalisation of energy supply in the UK.

Without a doubt we need to re-nationalise power companies, as rampant free-market economics is causing misery for the majority.

I have three kids and cannot afford to heat the house for them. It’s ridiculous that these power companies think it’s acceptable to charge the amount they do.

Please take note of this petition.

We don’t want more choice. We just want better service, of benefit to both individuals and companies, serving the economy as a whole, not just shareholders.

Utilities (power and water etc.) should be owned by the taxpayers who, after all, are subsidising private companies.

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

It is obscene for anyone (including the government with VAT) and especially foreigners to make money from the sale of domestic fuel. Privatisation is essential.

We need to get back to a uniform fair price with profits going into improvements, not shareholders’ pockets.

Play fair.

Essential services should be publicly owned and not a business driven by profit.

Utilities are too important to the public to be run at their expense for private profit.

Enough of these cartels. They do nothing for our country.

It’s time that the people had control of these companies and paid fair prices, instead of being ripped off for huge profits and making poorer people suffer.

Another privatisation for the benefit of the City and funders of the Conservative Party.

Our broad intervention strategies are: 1. Poverty eradication. 2. Food security and nutrition. 3. Health and population dynamics. 4. Education. 5. Gender Equality.

Something must be done. They are all raking in extreme profits from us poorer people.

This cartel of foreign-owned utilities should be more accountable.

Bring back the CEGB. They would have solved the reduction of CO2 problem, got nuclear generation, got safe generation margins etc.

This is a long overdue idea.

This country should by now be secure in the provision of clean, renewable, affordable energy. It is the shame of recent governments that we are not.

The fact that the privatised energy companies can threaten the UK with blackouts has made the need for nationalisation more urgent.

Power for the people.

I support this act.

Power (back) to the people.
