Update 26 Oct., 2019 - The energy suppliers increased the tariff at the beginning of last winter and already announced a further increase; despite 50,000 people died of hyperthermia last winter. Conservative Gov stands idle by.
The energy companies making billions of pounds while 40,000 people died of hyperthermia and the Government does not force them to reduce their tariffs. Furthermore the taxpayers pay the Government's expenses. They ought to be ashamed of themselves.
UPDATE: 15 January, 2016
Oil prices are at a 11 year low and had been fallen at the same time the energy suppliers increased every winter their tariff by 10 per cent. Yet PM David Cameron, sly and cunning, puts his head into the sand.
It is a fact that the wholesale gas prices dropped by 50 per cent and the electricity by 30 per cent but not a penny to the consumer despite energy suppliers are making sky high profits. Their chief executives are earning one to three billion pounds salaries plus the same in bonuses.

It is a scandal when cash strapped
people cannot afford heating. Last year 40,000 people died of hypothermia while
the fat cats could not care less.
As for the
regulator Ofgem is should be closed down after not only doing anything to stop
the 10 per cent increase every last three winters knowing very well of the drop
in whole sale prices of 50 per cent gas and 30 per cent electricity. Add insult upon insult they advised to have
sandwiches to save gas and/or electricity.
The people
being so desperate, besieged the PM David Cameron but from a letter to the
energy supplier which did nothing and he did nothing more. Mr Cameron being
rich and earning £165,000 per year does even get his energy bills paid by the
hard-up public who have to choose between heating or buying food. He has not got a clue what life is really
like and he does not care to find out.
Mr Cameron has the audacity to deny
that such a situation exists even so there are over 1,000 food banks and over
one million rely on it. Even the top
leaders of various churches have written to Mr Cameron last year beseeching him
to change his austerity scheme to avail. He even denied there is such a
situation.
The situation
has now become so desperate that there are not only food banks but also fuel
banks. People, if they qualify by receiving a letter from doctors or Social
workers, they not only get food but also a £48 vouchers for fuel consumption.
But Mr Cameron and his disciples are
still riding on their high horses and ignore the desperation.
The energy
suppliers made anything between £500million to several billion pound profit and
the Government does nothing to cut them down.
