Trusting energy companies to run their businesses for the benefit of customers is naive. Privatisation means profits first and last.

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

It’s about time someone made the essential energy we all need a non-profit deal and made it affordable for all.

This and every other essential utility should be returned to public ownership.

Privatisation has not worked.

We have sold off too many of our utilities that should be owned by the taxpayers. Water, Gas, Electricity are all owned by foreigners.

Basic utilities that underpin the infrastructure of a nation should never be in the hands of private, often foreign, businesses.

It’s time to acknowledge that some industries should be run for the benefit of people, not profit.

The recent price increases by the major energy companies prey on the most vulnerable members of society solely to boost already record high profits.

It can never be right or in the best interests of the many to have power in private hands. If the state runs it correctly it could use the profits for better services.

Put energy suppliers back into public ownership.

Get it back in our hands, with proper, democratically-consulted safeguards against bad management this time.

Let’s bring an end to the extortion racket that is operated by the power companies.

Re-nationalise now.

Energy is infrastructure, and this is the bedrock of national security.

Profiteering based on the sale of a commodity which is essential to life and basic human comfort is outrageous. Nationalisation would end this.

It should never have been privatised in the first place.

Everyone who remembers the privatisation of utilities foresaw this happening. Re-nationalise now without compensation.

Prices are too high.

This is a long overdue idea.

I want all utilities re-nationalised.

Return our gas and electricity to public ownership now.

It’s a disgrace – pure greed. We need to have energy re-nationalised.

It was, will be and is the property of those who are the property of this land. Let’s manage it so users, planet and the power industry workers get what they need.

Essential services should be publicly owned and not a business driven by profit.

Privatisation has become a nightmare from which we would like to wake up.

Re-nationalisation is the only answer.

No-one should be profiting out of the essentials of life; any surplus should be going back into the public purse.

I really wish you good luck in this campaign, because everything in the UK is being privatised.

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