According to Labour before the election there would be plenty of money thanks to Windfall Taxes and going after non-doms....

Given they struggle to fund even basic front line services, I can't see anyone having the cash to employ people to work late at night, walking the streets and banging on doors to check someone is using properly seasoned logs or smokeless coal. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Energy bills to soar by £140 to heap misery on pensioners (msn.com) I don't see why there should be any price cap! Why not cap the price of housing, is this price control a new permanent thing, where the Government subsidises energy? We had price controls in the 1960s under Harold Wilson, are we going back to those times, really? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Get onto the Octopus tracker tariff and it'll follow the wholesale price of energy not the Government cap. People have saved a good amount over the last year. If it's a particularly harsh winter tho, you may end up losing out. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
