'Fuel poverty'?
Comments
-
Unfortunately if you are too poor to heat your home you are disqualified from being allowed to call yourself fuel poor. Only people living in subsidised housing are likely to be able to claim 'fuel poverty'. You have to spend 10% of your gross income on fuel. This is, of course, not possible if you are genuinely poor and thus you are forced to pay the premium to support the usual claimants.
Care to translate that into Elish someone without your warped mind can understand?0
