The Sunday Post are really going to town on the energy companies.
New analysis and a survey on their website this morning.

"Consumers will never get a fair deal from the Big Six energy firms unless their stranglehold on the market is weakened."

No idea what the survey will lead to, but can't hurt!

  • Hmm.

    The average UK energy bill is nowhere near £1265 a year, so this particular journalist hasn't really done their homework.

    The only thing in that piece that I haven't seen repeated to death elsewhere is that profits for the last 3 years have come down, despite the fact that 2 out of those 3 winters were exceptionally cold.
