Changing Gas & Electric Meters and are utilities already paid for?

jordylass

Searching around in desperation because of the increases I came across some posts claiming our utilities are already paid for in our taxes and if we change the meters and own them ourselves there's no need to pay a suppiler. I'm alternating between ridiculous/possible and as its propogated by Freemen of the land, I  wanted to hear other opinions on this.

two words. first rhymes with a City in Humberside, second rhymes with a vessel that sail in the water.

Absolute tosh.

It's Freeman on the Land nonsense. This barrister covers why it's nonsense in less than 3 minutes:

It has come up a here few times, just the usual rubbish from the FOTL nut jobs.

You can fit your own meters (which is legal) but it will not reduce your energy costs. 

Energy is not paid for through taxation. If that was the case, then why is the Government bailing out our energy bills at a borrowing cost of c.£150Bn?

Don't alternate, just stick with "nonsense".
