Brian Smith, Stockton BrookEnergy for public good not private profit.
Janet Brooke, NottinghamAt the very least do away with a daily standing charge.
Joan Harrison, St AlbansLet’s get rid of the shareholders.
Martin Grimshaw, BrightonA 21st Century smart organisation, lean, agile, co-operative and sociocratic – sharp and efficient. Replace customer-hostile with customer-centred.
Andii Bowsher, SunderlandI can’t see how paying dividends can do anything other than take money away from customer service or lower prices.
Mark Atkinson, HastingsSupporting social ideals with collective responsibility.
Vi Dunning, Thornton CleveleysIt’s a disgrace – pure greed. We need to have energy re-nationalised.
Lesley Burt, ChristchurchOne of the best things for UK people and UK finance would be the re-nationalisation of power and railways.
Patrick McGrath, LondonRe-nationalise now.
Jennifer Gray, BristolRe-nationalise all energy.
David Farmer, YorkshireNo profit should be taken from providing people with essential services.
Gerald Halligan, EdinburghThe recent price increases by the major energy companies prey on the most vulnerable members of society solely to boost already record high profits.
Matthew Lowrey, Newcastle-upon-TyneIt is just daylight robbery, but what is there to stop them? No-one wants to say too much with the election so close so we get just the same clap-trap.
Rita Thirsk, BeverleyEnergy companies should be brought to task.
Joyce Watchorn, Chester-le-StreetPut this resource back in the hands of the British taxpayer instead of foreign shareholders who do not care about people.
David Treasurer, CanterburyRe-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.
Stuart Wooldridge, PontefractIs it a service for the people to keep warm this winter or is it a business to make the profits bigger. If everyone stopped payment for one month they’d fail big time.
Mark Garner, LeicesterEssential services must be state-owned. Power for the people, by the people.
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.
Stephen Munton, BirminghamPlease return the gas and electricity industry to the same great institution which it used to be.
Matthew Day, LeicesterPeople not profits.
Iain Logan, LiverpoolStart with the railways, then re-nationalise gas, water and electricity. Hands off the Royal Mail too!
Richard Smith, DevizesI have been saying we should re-nationalise the industry for years.
Blair Breton, PortsmouthRegulators are captured by their industries and this makes the commercial model act against its consumers if pursuit of profits paid to foreign owners.
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.
Mike P Hodgson, PenrithDear British Gas, stop ripping me off.
Martin Findell, NottinghamOur energy infrastructure is a vital national asset. It is too important to be left in private hands and run for private profit.
Leah Etteridge, ChathamPower for the people.
Dorcas Munday, WellingboroughPeople who have a physical disability or learning disability and the elderly are most at risk with all the high charges.
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.
