    As above. If you are not prepared to accept higher prices then what is your alternative plan?

    Whilst you are still feeling angry/worried, I suggest that you send a polite but firm email to your MP. They need to know - by the bag load - what people think about the present situation and the need for some Government action.

    Everyday there are numerous new threads from people shocked to see how much gas/electric is going to be for a while. It's quite concerning.
