Rejected petition Government Intervention to Solve Energy Crisis

With the UK facing the worst energy crisis ever, no doubt sending many more people in to fuel poverty, it is absolutely ESSENTIAL that the UK Government intervene to help with this horrendous situation.

More details

If the UK Government do not intervene, thousands more families will be thrown in to fuel poverty which is already an issue in this country. More people will live in dreadful circumstances, unable to keep their homes warm and as a consequence, there will be more deaths, not only from illnesses, but from even greater mental health issues related to desperation.
