Thatcher’s legacy needs to be addressed.

Dario Giudici

Utilities should never have been privatised in the first place. Please, re-nationalise for the sake of the British people.

Christian Chess, Chippenham

Current events. Enough said.

Thomas Reid, Barlby

All have the right to have access to essentials for life, which includes an energy supply, regardless of ability to pay.

John Tyrrell, Birmingham

Let’s pull the plug on the fat cats.

Roger Allen, London

Let’s get this job done.

Bill Smickersgill, Leeds

I’m tired of being overcharged and paying more for ever decreasing benefit. Nationalise now.

Julia Clarke, Croydon

No need to feed the greed. Plant the seed.

Bryan Burrow, Kendal

All utilities and public transport should be in state ownership.

John Truelove, Weston-super-Mare

I would like to put my name to this petition and I actively support the campaign to bring back our energy network into public ownership.

Oliver Steward, Norwich

Re-nationalise.

Paul Scotter, Norwich

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

Paul Mclean, Leeds

Fairness for all please, not just the rich.

Mary Morgan, Manchester

Public ownership is the only viable basis on which energy and public transport can be planned and developed in an integrated way, to combat climate change.

Liam McDill, Sandwick

I agree we need not-for-profit, but with a good business structure of course.

Annalise Richter, Swansea

Power to the people now.

Kieran Hill, Sheffield

Nationalisation is best with no dividends to pay.

Margaret Evans, Sheffield

Re-nationalisation is the only answer.

David Britten, Farnham

Light and heat are basic human needs and profits should not be made from their provision.

Brian Hoey, Houghton-le-Spring

Let’s take utilities back. They’re not for making a few people wealthy.

Sue Rowies, St Ives

Tell Sid to hand back the keys and bugger off.

David Goodwin, Dunchurch

I just want a reliable, fair, publicly-owned utility, not a never-ending cycle of chasing different suppliers to get good value.

Martyn Wilson, Farnborough

No profit should be taken from providing people with essential services.

David Farmer, Yorkshire

How can we boycott them?

Jean Fernandes, London

Fuel should be a nationalised industry, to ensure that there are certain controls in place so that everyone can stay warm.

Tracey Purnell, Edinburgh

Public utilities should never be in private hands. Simple.

Alec Rivers, Folkestone

The 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.

Roger Wells, Stourbridge

The only way to stop the profiteering rip-off that is perpetrated by the private utility companies is to bring back all of them under the public wing.

Johnathan Mark Sharpe-Smith, Great Driffield

All makes sense to me. Do it now.

Matt Haskins, London

It’s about time these big companies are called to account for pricing people out of their basic day-to-day needs.

Stephen Chambers, Strood
