Ken Keable, Stoke-sub-HamdonI campaigned against electricity privatisation when I worked in the industry and served on the NEC of the Electrical Power Engineers’ Association. I am vindicated.
Paul Geraghty, WarringtonReturn to public ownership for the people’s benefit.
Tim Armstrong-Taylor, KimptonReturning power ownership and production to the British people is the only way to guarantee cost and infrastructure control. Give power back to the people.
Tom Warnett, SloughA publicly owned energy provider will show up the lie that competition has been good for consumers, just as East Coast has on the railways.
Paul Baker, WinsfordIt is about time it was re-nationalised.
David Johnson, LeicesterGas and electricity is a ‘must commodity’ for everyone and should be re-nationalised asap, provided they are managed by competent experts in the respective fields.
John Exon, HarrogateBring back the CEGB. They would have solved the reduction of CO2 problem, got nuclear generation, got safe generation margins etc.
Rose Kay, Berwick-on-TweedRe-nationalisation is the only rational path to follow. Our power is going to capitalists abroad.
Alex Burnell, IpswichBring the power back to the people.
Steve Jenkins, LancasterEnergy 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.
Len White, CoventryRe-nationalise all power and water companies now.
Margaret Kearns, Ashton-under-LyneAct now. We have to stick together to stop the fat cats getting fatter.
Julia Clarke, CroydonI’m tired of being overcharged and paying more for ever decreasing benefit. Nationalise now.
Anthony Hook, ChesterfieldGas and electricity were once in public ownership and ran without problems of profit making. They should be returned to public ownership.
Sam Roberts, LiverpoolStop extortionate bills. Also stop extortionate estimates that neither reflect the consumption of energy or make clear that they are only estimates.
Jeffrey Wong, ManchesterDaylight robbery. Corporate assisted manslaughter.
Susanna Rance, PlymouthYou know it is fair.
Eileen Watts, SwanseaThis government is selling UK down the river good and proper. I have to work two days to pay for one week’s energy and I’m not wallowing in centrally heated bliss.
Steve Waldenberg, LeedsGood idea. As it would cost, why not set up a publicly owned company, cut the other’s prices and they will soon cease trading?
Sheilagh Merrett, WindleshamGive us decently priced fuels.
Ian Cattell, WolverhamptonHow about paying for energy usage with, say, 3% income tax? The rich would pay more than the poor. Incentivise low usage by dropping the percentage.
Mark Whittaker, NottinghamshireStop making a profit from you own people.
Adrian Potts, LeicesterProfiteering on this scale should be illegal. It’s the unacceptable face of capitalism and must be stopped.
Jez Curnow, EdinburghPeople would be happier paying tax if the essential services were to be or stay nationalised.
Lennard James-Tall, LlanelliMore money for the rich and the poor suffer.
Greg Hewitt, NottinghamWe 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.
Norman Wall, WallsendGet back to sanity.
John Price, OakhamMaggie Sold off the taxpayers’ property without their permission, leading to the chaos and profiteering, substandard maintenance and horrendous price Increases.
John Malcolm, MayfieldThe utilities were sold off far too cheaply.
Ian Johncock, GravesendMaking profit from essential public services shouldn’t be allowed.
