Energy is not 'cheap'

Davedastardly

MSE's so called Cheap Energy Club is a misnomer, as energy is far from cheap. It should perhaps be renamed 'Best Deal Energy Club'. The big 5 suppliers are truly making hay while a supine government is making noises but does nothing to deter excessive and unjustified profits at the expense of the consumer. Who cares that that many vulnerable people live a miserable, cold existence during the winter months, some of whom literally die from hypothermia?

Many of those "vulnerable" people you see on tv :-
complaining they cannot afford run the gas central heating so have to sit in front of an electric fire in one room - I heat my whole house with loads of hot water for less than running a single electric fire.
look at their yellow nicotine stained fingers - they can afford £50 a week on fags but cannot afford £20 a week for heat.

Many of those need to look at their priorities rather than whining.

Afraid energy in the UK is generally cheap, move to Europe if you want to pay more. Sign of things to come; invest in insulation and air tightness.

I tell you what OP, go and have a winter in Germany, like my Grandmother. Then tell me it's expensive here.

Or, if it's capitalism that's the problem, try North Korea.
