Sneering tone

What_time_is_it

I'm seeing a lot of "nobody told you to fix" posts on here today.

The truth is, for many people who "chose" to fix in the last couple of months it was an act of necessity, not a choice. All the noises from the (mostly absent) government and from both leadership contenders was that the price cap would remain, and that any additional "handouts" would be either non-existent or targeted to those most in need. We acted because to NOT fix would have meant running out of money or being cut off.

Please don't treat these kind of decisions lightly. They were certainly not taken lightly.
