Do you mean they don't pay tax in the countries where they operate?

BP pay all “relevant” taxes - all profits from all operations globally are then rolled up into UK where they pay tax on those profits to UK treasury. The UK, as the sole recipient jurisdiction of all profits globally, are in prime position to levy tax across all of them rather than individual countries, such as Senegal unilaterally increasing tariffs - which is really a non starter for them given their economy is overly reliant on oil / gas drilling (~14% GDP compared to ~1% for the UK) and they can’t afford to piss them off.
 
They could reduce the profit margin on the energy they sell. It's not costing them any more to produce it.


They could ... but the businesses are structured so that they could increase costs on the production (separate company and cost centre) ... and increase costs on their customer service centres (separate company and cost centre)

its why the energy regulator is a waste of space... cant do anything.
 
Another massive increase in bills.


Why do I put it on this link?? Because they negotiate the price with this shower of sh1t we call a government.

Market Price of gas 4 Jan 2022 - 9.5401p

Market Price of gas today?? - 4.4007p

No massive price rises over the last few months!! So why are they allowed to hike them??

Our son works in the industry and these are the prices he works on. This is no secret; here is the link and you can put in your own dates.

Yet the Ofgem CEO told MP's wholesale prices have trebled? Is it in fact our internal market that is the fault here?
 
I'd guess top of the shop advice from his £1/2m focus group would be " less of the £10k private choppers if you want the poor to think that you are like them you **** " ......

Sunak to make major announcement on Thursday about "A cost of living package."

The Gray report must be being released tomorrow then...
We are paying a fortune for power but the likes of Eon claim they are nit making profit and the only people/companies making profits are the giants ie BP etc but they tell us the cost of gas is through the roof because of that Russian ****, so how come they are making profit hand over fist, it is blatantly obvious they do not have to sell the gas/oil to the likes of Eon at this top end price forcing them then to hammer the working man hard.

Oh and we all know this package will be to help the very poor, that is all well and good but for the first time in my bastard life, I have managed to put some hard-earned cash to one side for house projects only to see it start dwindling because energy bills are now nearly as much as my mortgage and with the news today of them going up another £800 in October (and how do they know they need to put it up this much already?) it will become my highest bill and frankly that isn't right but I expect zero help from these millionaire/billionaire politicians and that is from all parties, not just the tories, they are all the fucking same when they get in power, cunts.
