Yay,
Just trying to sort out energy for next year. 2 options on comparison sites and all have nearly doubled my monthly cost.

£112pcm to over £200pcm.

I may be wrong but I'm not sure this is a Brexit phenomenon, I was under the impression that the whole of Europe was facing gas shortages, mainly due to Russia reducing the supply.

Some have suggested that leaving the EU internal energy market has meant UK has been hit harder.

Full Fact say this is not the case: https://fullfact.org/online/gas-prices-brexit/

But then the Brexiteers promised lower prices one we were out so it looks like that was yet another illusory gain.
Now that is a classic, one person blaming Brexit on their energy bill going up, another one saying it isn't but still able to find something to slag the 'Brexiteers' off for.

Absolutely priceless!

Two different issues (a) is Brexit partly to blame for gas prices going up - apparently not (b) Gove and others advocating for Brexit said we would get cheaper fuel outside - has it happened?.

Is it that hard to comprehend?

How do you know it wouldn't have been even more expensive?

I just find someone who is clearly sitting comfortably in life and has taken advantage of the benefits you pointed out yourself regarding DB pensions that the Tories afforded you, you constantly slag them off!

It's alright, Liz Truss has a tank and she's gonna sort the Russians out. We'll be fine.
