Rejected petition Limit the profit made by fuel companies selling electricity and gas

More details

Limit the obscene profit made by companies that sell electricity and gas. These companies are keeping people in poverty and damaging the economy in the process by making sure people do not have the disposable income to help kick start the high street, housing market and other areas of a healthy economy. Take the chance of fixing the mistakes of previous government's that sold off national run companies and put them in the hands of a select few people who are ripping off the people of Britain.
