The UKs energy now is supplied by foreign companies who have been allowed to rip off the good people of the UK for far too long.
Our politicians have allowed this to happen because they do not care, nor do they feel the same pain as we all do - if the cost of energy goes up they just give themselves another pay-rise to compensate for the energy rise. How many time have we heard the phrase "You can either eat or Heat - you can't do both"!
