The energy bill write off con.

Fuel poverty rising, debt £4.4bn. Ofgem says £500m could be written off.

It would be added to the bills of other customers. Energy companies made £514bn operating profit since 2020.

No cut in their profit. Debt would be rebuilt

Nationalise energy. End profiteering

Need a regulator that curbs profiteering, decouples gas from the price of electricity.

UK electricity is one of the most expensive in the world.

Ofgem bases price of electricity on the cost of gas, which is most expensive input.

Providers of wind, solar, coal, nuclear, hybro, biomass power make mega profits.

Must change Ofgem formula. Take gas out of equation, need more renewables.

Ofgem is completely captured by the Energy Companies and exists to keep profits as high as possible by producing fake estimates that vastly overestimate the costs of providing Energy.

Everyone at Ofgem needs to be fired, or even better jailed.

@georgemonbiot.bsky.social The UK’s energy market is broken, and #Scotland is paying the price. Despite producing massive amounts of cheap renewable energy, households are being financially penalised by an outdated national grid system. #EnergyCrisis #Ofgem #GreenEnergy @andyburnham.bsky.social
