Basic needs should not be in the hands of big business.

We’re told we have fundamental human rights in this country but do they actually mean anything when people are freezing to death in their own homes?

Privatisation has proved not to be in the interests of the nation. Competition has not resulted in companies vying to please customers, but in a self-interested cartel.

It’s past time to roll back the Thatcherite privatisations which did nothing but sow confusion as to what is the supposed best deal. And that’s the least of it.

It’s ours, give it back.

Services for the people, not private profit.

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.

One of the best things for UK people and UK finance would be the re-nationalisation of power and railways.

We need to get back to a point where basics such as heat and light are affordable to all. People before profit.

Our energy needs to be renewable and prices need to be fairer for all.

Energy, rail and health are strategic resources that should be government controlled. We’ve already got health, so there are two to go.

I was forced to debilitating depression and suicide by N-power’s false billing. My MP wrote to Voker Beckers and we have no reply a year on.

At last. Well done you people and may your good work continue.

The companies were sold off cheaply and no investment has been made by them since privatisation. They now want to make the consumers pay for under-investment.

It is time we all said enough is enough. Thank you for organising this petition.

All utilities should belong to the people, not profit-making private companies.

The time is right to have our power back.

De-rail the current gravy train. Too many bosses and not enough productive staff.

Re-nationalise all energy.

Life is too short.

Yes, nationalisation would be great. The prices are crazy at the moment.

Utilities belong to the people.

Crooks every one of them.

All the fuel companies are rogues.

Privatisation equals prices up, service down, profits to investment bankers.

Power to the people to eradicate poverty caused by big power companies and big businesses making huge profits of millions of pounds by selling energy at high prices.

The energy industry is a public service and should be run as such, not for profit.

The aim to privatise our natural emerging monopolies would only end in disaster. There is no competition on energy provision and it’s a huge waste of resources.

I never thought I would be living in fuel poverty.

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