Something as essential as power generation should not be in the hands of people whose only interest is in short term shareholder gain.

All energy companies should be re-nationalised and green energy supported.

Everyone needs energy and at a cost that protects and enhances life, rather than simply unearned dividend payments which are used to make rich people even richer.

Shame on a government which thrusts even more people into fuel poverty, while its MPs claim heating expenses for their second homes.

Yes, nationalisation would be great. The prices are crazy at the moment.

Making profit from essential public services shouldn’t be allowed.

Fantastic idea.

Give us our money back you thieving gits watching us suffer.

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?

I’m sick of these rip-off companies fleecing us.

Energy companies are too greedy. Our sick, elderly and working-class can’t afford to heat their homes. Re-nationalise as soon as possible and keep us out of debt.

Utilities should be in public hands and not those of profit-seeking, and often foreign, owners.

All the fuel companies are rogues.

All the utility privatisations were a complete disaster for the consumer and the generating industry itself. It’s time to admit it. Get rid of these boards of directors.

Profiteering on this scale should be illegal. It’s the unacceptable face of capitalism and must be stopped.

Restore security and sovereignty by restoring energy, utilities and transport to public ownership.

Time for re-nationalisation of the energy industry. Consumers should come first, not a bunch of faceless shareholders who put their own profit first.

Electricity and gas are now a vital part of our everyday lives. It is morally wrong to profit from something the people are so dependant on.

I agree with the sentiments on the power Bill of Rights. Power to cook and keep warm is a human right, not a means to destroy the environment and make massive profits.

Public ownership can be local and democratic. It does not have to be 1940s style state bureaucracy.

The privatisation of utilities and other national assets has been 30 years of failure and corruption. It should be stopped.

It makes sense for ‘natural monopoly’ industries, providing necessities like energy, to be in public hands. Profits directly invested into insulating homes.

Stop extortionate bills. Also stop extortionate estimates that neither reflect the consumption of energy or make clear that they are only estimates.

I support this act.

Too many million-pound salaries for energy company CEOs while the elderly and others choose between heating and lighting and eating.

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.

These energy companies are like a mafia, using the consumer as a cash cow. The Government doesn’t want to do anything to stop it because half the MPs are shareholders.

It is time we all said enough is enough. Thank you for organising this petition.

Privatisation has failed the people. These must be brought back under state control.

I couldn’t agree more with this agenda. Power to the voiceless.
