Don't Pay Birmingham

Don't Pay Birmingham. Building a mass non-payment strike of energy bills starting on Oct 1st. Join us in building the strike!

[Don't Pay. @dontpayuk]

Rishi Sunak won't have any trouble heating his mansions and pools this winter.

How can we expect someone whose family wealth is valued at £730 million to act in our interests?

We need to #TakeBackPower from unelected multi-millionaires and profiteering energy companies.

[Don’t Pay Brighton @DontPayBrighton]

We now know that @dontpayuk strategy works.

A short🧵 ...

Leaks from E.on confirmed the strategy works

They described the threat of a strike as an “existential threat”, and went straight to Kwasi Kwarteng, demanding he do something

Here’s one of the slides they showed him...

[Novara Media @novaramedia]

We should be talking about Don't Pay's pivotal role in sending the government into a tailspin, argues Keir Milburn.

BREAKING | ENERGY PRICE GUARANTEE U-TURN!

After promising 2 YEARS of fixed prices, our already unaffordable bills will face another MASSIVE hike in 6 months.

[Don't Pay. @dontpayuk]

The Energy Price Guarantee was never a guarantee at all.

We’re already paying record-high, unaffordable prices and now the government is already u-turning on their inadequate #EnergyBills support.

We're left facing another massive hike in just a few months. #DontPayUK

[Birmingham Green Party #VoteGreenInBrum @Brumgreens]

And now the Tories want to ban #solarpower from most farmland in England.
They're not even trying to hide being in thrall to #FossilFuel interests are they? https://t.co/sUxvZfmxph

[Corporate Watch @CorpWatchUK]

While we struggle to pay the bills, company CEO Keith Anderson earned at least £494k last year, while the ultimate boss of Scottish Power took home at least £5.49m. The company has donated £48k to the Tory party over the last ten years @dontpayuk @dontpaywales @dontpayeastLDN
