This petition was submitted during the 2019-2024 parliament
Rejected petition The proposed £200 loan should be optional and not forced on the British public.
The £200 loan proposed by the chancellor should not be forced on the British public as a whole.
To force debt on the british public is morally reprehensible and everyone should have a choice.
Those that do choose to take it should pay it back directly to the treasurery not to the energy companies
More details
The £200 loan is being fully funded by the government to the energy companies. That same £200 is then paid back to the energy companies through our bills.
It is categorically wrong to allow the energy companies to profit in this way from the British publics tax burden and then again though our energy bills.
You are asking us to pay twice and calling it "help"
