Every example of "good" sports writing is like: "A cold wind blew. Pops lobbed the ball into my cool mitt. Mickey Mantle was dead."

If Ofgem don’t bring bills down in 6 days time then 8.4 million people in the UK will be dumped into fuel poverty from April. While BP & Shell alone have made £55bn profit in a single year. It isn’t a crisis. It’s a bloody scandal.

Wholesale prices of UK gas are collapsing before our eyes. The price of gas has just fallen to its lowest level for 534 days. Ofgem must cut bills now. End the rip off.

NEW: BP profits rise to £23 billion. Why does this government refuse to bring in a proper windfall tax on energy giants, to stop the price cap going up in April? They are too weak to stand up for working people, and would rather land them with the bill. theguardian.com/business/202…

Booking a trip to Paris, and the Eurostar is twice the price of flying there. Why aren't we subsidising trains and taxing planes yet?

Wholesale Gas has just crashed to a new low. Just 150p per therm compared to 702p in August. An energy boss who’s company made £20 billion profit last year today says high energy bills are here to stay. We must fight back. This is a rip off.

Shell UK haven’t paid UK taxes in 5 years, despite profits of £3.6ml every hour. They have described paying tax of £1.7bn this year as “taking a hit”. It takes them less than 3 weeks to make £1.7bn in profit.
