Essential services must be state-owned. Power for the people, by the people.

It can never be right or in the best interests of the many to have power in private hands. If the state runs it correctly it could use the profits for better services.

Give us our money back you thieving gits watching us suffer.

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

Maggie Sold off the taxpayers’ property without their permission, leading to the chaos and profiteering, substandard maintenance and horrendous price Increases.

Give the power back to the people.

It’s about time the British people were helped by this government.

Privatisation wouldn’t have been so bad if the prices hadn’t been driven up so far so fast and the services degraded. Shareholders and businessmen are all greedy.

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.

I can’t see how paying dividends can do anything other than take money away from customer service or lower prices.

Everybody needs it, it’s essential and should not be run by firms from outside the UK who are only interested in making money.

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.

Supporting social ideals with collective responsibility.

It’s a disgrace – pure greed. We need to have energy re-nationalised.

There are too many companies offering lots of deals. The consumer can’t work out what is best for them. Often changing suppliers makes it worse. We need clarification.

Re-nationalise all power and water companies now.

Utilities should be in public hands and not those of profit-seeking, and often foreign, owners.

Energy prices are way too high. We are in debt already and next year will be worse. They are bleeding us dry.

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

Vote these Tory swine out of office as soon as possible.

This needs to happen.

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.

We have been ripped off far too long by corrupt government after corrupt government. It’s time the public voice was heard.

End this disastrous privatisation.

I agree fully with your comments.

We’ve had enough of prices so high and having to have a house that is cold.

About damn time. Let’s hope many more signatures follow.

Energy supplies and infrastructure are produced by the people. They should be owned by the people.

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

When the Tory government privatised utilities, they did not plan it out. It is a failed experiment which has only succeeded in making the man in the street suffer.
