A 21st Century smart organisation, lean, agile, co-operative and sociocratic – sharp and efficient. Replace customer-hostile with customer-centred.

Martin Grimshaw, Brighton

Bring back the CEGB and area boards and not the private companies, mainly from abroad, fleecing the British taxpayers.

Alan Newstead, Eastleigh

The present system is inefficient and screws the consumer. It’s time for a change.

David Gutteridge, Chesterfield

Our energy infrastructure is a vital national asset. It is too important to be left in private hands and run for private profit.

Martin Findell, Nottingham

It should be back under one ownership, like it used to be. British gas is now owned by the French.

Tom Gwynnette, Rotherham

Utilities should not be for profit but for the people.

Marylyn Edwards, Hastings

Energy supply and distribution requires long term and nationwide co-ordination. Privatisation gives no reason to look to the future when a quick buck can be made now.

Alexander Scott, Ardrossan

It’s about time. I’m sick of getting robbed every winter.

Stephen Cooper, Peterborough

Heating and lighting are essential commodities in the UK. They should not be profit-based industries. They should be run by society for society.

Lindy Furby, Edinburgh

It’s time to stop rich friends of the government ripping us off. Rail, water, gas, electricity and now the mail too.

Colin Tarrant, Derby

That’s it. We’ve had enough. You can push the people so far. Now we are taking our power back.

Angela Holcroft, North Berwick

Heating and hot water should not be for commercial gain.

Pam Robinson, London

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

Andy Wilkinson, Norwich

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

Mark Marriott, Nottingham

It is impossible to have a fair utility supply in the private sector – let’s take it back.

Gill Page, Richmond

You can see the Big Six are cheating. There never was such an obvious cartel.

Bernard Harrison, London

Re-nationalise now.

Patrick McGrath, London

Whatever excuses they come up with, its a cartel and that’s illegal.

Susan Shaw, Barnsley

Enough is enough with no pay rises and the energy companies just milking us. It’s time that fuel came back into public ownership.

Nigel Penn, Buxton

I transferred to the Co-op from British Gas and Immediately cut my energy costs by a third.

Phillip Walton, Basildon

Power to the little men and women.

Stuart Holden, Nottingham

Energy profits should be invested in energy re-vitalisation, not to line the pockets of company bosses and shareholders.

Stephen Swanton, Leeds

I’m 100% behind you.

Eric Firth, Dewsbury

Good idea. As it would cost, why not set up a publicly owned company, cut the other’s prices and they will soon cease trading?

Steve Waldenberg, Leeds

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

Malcolm Duckworth, Preston

Lives before excessive profit.

John Taylor, Chesterfield

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.

Lynda Rea, Ware

The attempt to create an artificial market in energy supply has demonstrably failed. It is broke so let’s fix it.

Rik Alewijnse, Feering

No argument. Power is an essential, not a profit-making commodity.

Sarah Patton, Haslemere

You’ve had your time fat cats.

William Hunt, Southport
