Hospitality will go bump, who the fuck can afford to go out! People getting back on their feet after Covid will tighten their vents, I noticed a surge in people getting stuff done on their houses etc plus booking holidays can see all this drying up if people have to find £100s to just survive through the winter.
This Government doesn’t give a fuck basically, let’s be honest the more dead pensioners from hypothermia means money saved on pensions . They are putting political beliefs above the welfare of its citizens.
Don't worry about being thick, it's all part of being a West ham fan ;)
Neither do the energy companies mate, and loads of politicians have a financial interest in the energy industry.
Does you no good keep checking on it though mate, I'm the same as we only had one fitted a few weeks ago, novelty will soon wear off hopefully
Yeah I don’t usually. I just wanted to see what the jump was like and it was quite a jump! I can afford it but absolutely feel for those who are having to make choices or stay cold.
Looking at some of the prices people are paying (or expected to pay) on here, they’re 3-4 times my mortgage payment (which is low granted ) but it’s mad, as things stand, my standing charge for my gas is already more than my daily rate of usage !
Worrying times mate. All the more so because the only way out seems to be for rampant inflation to carry wages along with it. Strange times as Tory govts usually hang their hats on control of interest and inflation rates. I do wonder if the govt plan is to tax their way out of trouble via vat, NI, and more folk tipping into upper income tax brackets while inflation erodes debt.
Turn to crime like the rest have had to do.
