We need market reform to stop relentless price cap rises.

It cost bill payers £100m to turn off wind farms in the last week.

No wonder generators don't want locational pricing.

This isn't Octopus vs incumbents, it's consumers vs producers.

The world is 700% richer than in 1970 but the average person is only 8% richer.

Because the richest 0.01% are 4000% richer.

We are all being robbed every second of every day, and it doesn't matter how much profit or growth there is.

It will never reach you.

In just 3 years the Standing Charge in the UK has tripled.

Some people are now paying 50% or more of what they were paying in 2021.

Just to have access to electricity.

It is a ripoff on everyone and it should be illegal.
