Wendy Welford, ThirskWe need to get back to a uniform fair price with profits going into improvements, not shareholders’ pockets.
Alison Belbin, BirminghamIt should never have been sold off in the first place. It’s a basic need which should be provided for the people by the people.
Gill Page, RichmondIt is impossible to have a fair utility supply in the private sector – let’s take it back.
Roger Wells, StourbridgeThe water companies should also be taken back into public ownership. Water is a vital resource for everyone. The notion that it can be owned by anyone is obscene.
David Robinson, SheffieldNo compensation for the shareholders who got the shares at a bargain price.
Rose Kay, Berwick-on-TweedRe-nationalisation is the only rational path to follow. Our power is going to capitalists abroad.
Jim Peters, DenhamWhy do we need the money-grabbing middle men? Give us back our energy industry and plough the profits back into the infrastructure, not into the pockets of shareholders.
John Payne, LondonAnother public asset stolen from the people.
Steve Jarvis, WestburyIt’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.
Sue Rees, WhitstableEnergy prices are way too high. We are in debt already and next year will be worse. They are bleeding us dry.
Jim Roche, LeedsEnergy, rail and health are strategic resources that should be government controlled. We’ve already got health, so there are two to go.
Anthony Phillips, LeedsPrivatisation of power is a broken concept. Re-nationalisation would literally bring power back to the people.
Judith Maizels, BusheyIt is immoral for individual and corporate fat cats to profit so obscenely from peoples’ need simply to stay warm. All energy companies should be renationalised now.
Frederick Johnson, BarryHaving just six energy companies, the market place is madness and allowing them to make huge profits from working-class families should not be allowed.
Louis Loizou, BrightonPublic utilities should never have been privatised. The Big Six are becoming more expensive because they are not exploiting renewables.
Mike Wilce, SouthamptonI could not agree with anything more.
John Hoyle, KetteringOur energy supply is fundamental to our society and should be owned by our society.
Graham Smith, Barnard CastleThe government could be making all the profit and then reduce taxes and improve public services.
Stephen Hurrel, GlasgowWe need to get back to a point where basics such as heat and light are affordable to all. People before profit.
Alan Ralph, WatfordThe energy rip-off needs to end now.
Geoff Walker, Stoke On TrentI’ve made the first step by ditching the big companies. I’ve moved my account to Co-operative energy, the first step to bring excessive profits back to members.
Jeffrey Wong, ManchesterDaylight robbery. Corporate assisted manslaughter.
Lynne Carpenter, Lindonstop private companies profiting at the people’s expense when so many are in ‘fuel poverty’
Shan Oakes, BeverleyEnergy is too important to be a wealth provider for shareholders of private companies.
John Freestone, HarrogateCapitalism or a planet – it’s one or the other.
Robert Rudge, Glaston, RutlandRe-nationalise the energy and power industries and make government answerable to the people.
Colin Todd, RedcarHow long before the market can stand no more?
Jes Fernie, ColchesterGive us back our power.
Sylvia Coles, NottinghamAll essential services should be nationalised. That’s rail, water, energy, post office, and schools under local authority control.
Susan Rogers, Whalley RangeWe need cheaper fuel.
