    Just to put this into context for some people:

    The UK’s biggest energy supplier reported profits of £969m for the first six months of 2023, up nearly 900% from £98m in the same period last year.

    Profits up nearly 900%. Fucking disgusting.

      Almost £900m taken from people’s spending power. Money that could have been used to make lives better, like higher quality food, holidays, housing, transport.

        It’s not even “higher quality”. This profiteering is forcing British families into severe hardship. We have something like 2 million children living in poverty. All while some foreign corporation is ringing the cash registers.
