EDF - gas and electricity price hike!!!


Here we go again, yet another fuel price hike, and this is a big one.
Approx 22% rise on duel fuel bills with immediate effect.
The company still make large profits, which i am sure their shareholders will wish them to maintain.
If the Tory government under Magaret Thatcher had not privatised every British industry, i am sure we would not yet be under as much financial pressure as we are now with our crazy household bills.
At least if the industry was still government controlled i am sure that profits would not have been the first thing that the industry think of, and perhaps the nations struggling people would be the first person thought of.
At the moment nobody has noticed it yet, but when those bills come in after christmas, it will suddenly dawn on them. Its only going to get worse.
Invest in oil as it will be worth more than gold soon!

'Fuel Poverty' is a term i heard today, this describes the situation people are in when they spend 10% of their annual income on heating and lighting. Scary.

Where all f*$£@d!
