United Kingdom Politics Having secured a third term, we will fulfil our promise to renew our country and take Britain forward to a better future not back to a failed Tory past. Our continuing success depends on our continuing to pursue a new Labour agenda as a modern progressive party. We will focus on three crucial areas: the economy, modernising public services, tackling crime and asylum; building on what we have achieved to make Britain better since coming to office in 1997

Arrow Are we being legally mugged by the state and the energy companies

All our energy firms are now foreign owned and completely control the UK energy market and our government is full of rhetoric but there is nothing they can do to stop them and to be honest I don’t think they really want to, if this wasn’t the case they would have foreseen the situation and we would have now far greater storage capacity. I mean it’s not as if it sneaked up on them, a blind man with a stick could of foreseen this and we would have been selling them our gas for the last thirty odd years during the winter months at an extravagant price instead of the other way round and since this is not the situation that can only mean they planned it this way or they are completely incompetent.

So ‘We’, as usual the moaning Minnies of Europe will ‘Whine’ but in the end will just put up and eventually shutup!! And why not! We’re use to it .It’s just another cartel and monopoly which we are so good at creating and maintaining, we’re just teaching our neighbours how lucrative it is legally mugging the British people. Unfortunately it’s hard trying to restrain their total greed; they’re literally foaming at the mouth.

They’re now at the stage of behaving like they’re oil companies, quick to pass on increases in prices, but fail to act when they fall. The price of oil has fallen by a fifth in the past month if you didn’t know and since we are now conveniently informed that gas and oil prices are linked, gas prices should be falling. Instead the Prices defy gravity — they go up, but they never come down.

GordonBrown’s new consumer advocate, EdMayo says that the European energy companies are often owned by the state from which they come and face no competition at home. But unlike our governments past and present they manipulate the market to protect their home market (Awhhh! ain’t that nice of them).

So we’ll just have to look forward to the prospect of paying £100+ a month to heat and light our homes this winter. Sorry! Old people but I think this is your cue for the winter months ahead “hurry up and die” at this rate I’ll be joining you soon.
