They know it, but powerful Big Energy lobbying/$$$ prevents them speaking up. Also disgusting (but not surprising) to see that the UK has the highest unit energy price IN THE WORLD (i.e. Ofgem are balls deep in the corruption).

This selfish, greedy, corrupt Government has so much to answer for.

@PSuss1 The trouble is, the government also know their days are numbered but they seem determined to go all in and make things as shitty as possible before they're ejected :(

@SW-User very true, does have a Last Days of Rome feel to it, sadly.

@PSuss1 Well, all I can say is what comes after they're gone can't be worse...

@PSuss1 It's easy to break things, much more difficult to build them. The U.S. certainly has it's problems, but there also a lot of good things about the U.S. We do need reforms, but I for one will not join in on "burning it all down."
