Let’s get the utilities out of the hands of these greedy bastards. They should belong to the community at large.

I support the dream but has anyone any idea of the cost of re-nationalising?

It’s time for a return to non-profit utilities, providing public services in a socially and environmentally responsible manner.

Another example of capitalism running amok with no restraints.

Where consumer essentials are concerned, profit adds to the cost. Re-nationalisation of power is necessary.

It 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.

Another area for re-nationalisation without compensation.

Power production should be for us all and not for private profit.

I want public utilities in state hands, not those of corporations.

I believe in a free market economy. But remove the exceptions to the rule that are the utilities and mass transport systems.

Time to draw the line in the sand methinks.

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

I want all utilities re-nationalised.

If we are all in this together then why aren’t the profits to shareholders falling?

Re-nationalise energy and let’s have it work for the public once again and not the greedy shareholders and energy companies.

People before profit.

Give us back our power.

Profit is not a dirty word – all businesses need it to survive, but what we have with the energy companies is pure unvarnished greed.

Stop privatisation now.

More power to your elbow. Something needs to be done to stop this profiteering on something that people rely on.

The cost of energy is going to be of increasing significance. People must make themselves heard.

No need to feed the greed. Plant the seed.

The experiment of privatised energy has failed beyond a reasonable doubt. It claimed competition would deliver the most affordable prices.

Privatisation of our infrastructure only works for those who worship the god of money.

I was forced to debilitating depression and suicide by N-power’s false billing. My MP wrote to Voker Beckers and we have no reply a year on.

All this tinkering around the edges of a corrupt system and empty threats to indifferent power companies is meaningless. Re-nationalise now.

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

Start with the railways, then re-nationalise gas, water and electricity. Hands off the Royal Mail too!

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.

Basic living, water and power, should not be owned by private companies for profit.
