Well I've fixed our energy tariff. We're not high energy users so our savings will not be massive (mahooosive) but at least it won't go up. #CostofLiving #UK #PriceCap #GasAndElectricity
#ofgem put up the price cap by 10% whilst energy companies are expected to make an 11% increase to their profits
What with winter fuel discounts ending, this may be a very unhappy Christmas for the elderly and those who receive little income
BUT
Try as I might, I can find no justification for this increase.
Ridotta del 16% la produzione petrolifera Russa. Attacchi e sanzioni: così il petrolio russo comincia a vacillare. I droni ucraini fermano le raffinerie, mentre crollano le esportazioni verso India e Turchia. La svolta dallo scorso autunno, quando le misure occidentali contro Mosca e i suoi alleati hanno iniziato ad essere applicate con maggiore severità.

The insulin price cap in Biden's Inflation Reduction Act is a big f*****g deal. How best to promote it? Bright colors? Exclamation marks? Misspell insulin?

I'm surprised more people aren't taking ownership over their own energy provider. Most countries have one of multiple #coop energy providers.
Belgium has like 20 of them. And the biggest one, Ecopower, was recently featured in this bbc mini docu
https://www.bbc.com/storyworks/humanising-energy-21/european-climate-foundation
People who had #Ecopower as their electricity provider didn't experience those insane price hikes during the last year+. (It went up, but only after a while and not as extreme)
