Rejected petition Nationalise Energy companies, stop price hikes!

More details

Gas and Electricity companies should be owned by the state and not foreign companies. Stop the huge hikes in charges for gas and electricity far exceeding market value and prevent the UK public from paying massive charges for energy in their homes. Allow the elderley to heat their homes in winter without the fear of going bankrupt! Reduce energy prices across the board to prices we can all afford to pay.
