Re-nationalise and invest profits instead of paying out to shareholders.

Big business has had too much power for too long. Its time to return it back to the people.

It’s ours, give it back.

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

It should never have been privatised.

We are being ripped off by these companies. Let’s disband them now and take back ownership.

Privatised energy is not serving the consumer; only the energy companies and their shareholders. Nationalise energy now.

I’m sick of these rip-off companies fleecing us.

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’s time to turn back the tide. Private is not always best. Let’s have more pride in civic institutions.

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.

Please take note of this petition.

Power we need and it’s only by sticking together that maybe something can be done. This is not what I and millions like me paid into. Please continue with your message.

Of all the public services this has the strongest link between modern day human needs and climate change. We cannot leave it to the greedy pigs to manage.

Everyone needs to stand together and join us in rolling back the control of market forces.

Our country should be run by the majority vote of the people not the MPs and fat cats. We are the ones who pay their wages.

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

Let’s get this job done.

Put energy suppliers back into public ownership.

Re-nationalise, run the power supplies as a service, not a way of making a few richer while the majority struggle to pay the bills. Any profit made is kept in the country.

We need a power company that the country owns not companies run by profiteers.

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

When people are having to decide between heating and eating what does that say about modern day Britain? The more shareholders get the more they want. Greedy people.

Public utilities should be in public hands. It’s as simple as that.

Re-nationalised power could act as a flywheel for the economy. Nationalised power could provide jobs, training, economical energy for business and private individuals.

Re-nationalise all power and water companies now.

Sustainable, affordable and communal energy.

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.

21st-century government has a duty to provide all its citizens with heat and light at a fair price. Ability to pay should make no difference to this basic human right.

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.
