Will they have large smart TV's, Sky, Netflix, Amazon Prime package, new cell phone, eat takeaways regular? IMHO all Government payments towards domestic consumer energy usage should be made to the users energy supplier, not to the user.

Foot and Mouth Posted September 21, 2022 Share Posted September 21, 2022 £400 energy grant to all households in GB, paid in October in six instalments, non repayable. It's a help. Plus bills will not be as high as first thought due to the cap. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

harvey19 Posted September 21, 2022 Share Posted September 21, 2022 I remember living in barracks with just a pot bellied stove in the middle of the room . I recall ironing my sheets and then putting them on the bed before getting in to warm it up. Blankets and greatcoat on top. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
