This article is right in everything it says - but there’s something it’s missing - we need to Break the Link between the price of gas and the price of green energy - until we do that no amount of green energy can bring our bills down.
We need to challenge the right wing lies to stop them from taking hold. It’s the price of fossil gas that’s making our bills high - not green energy and not Net Zero.
@AshleyDalton_MP you can say the earth is flat but it don't make it so.
I read your letter which mentions an idea that covid-19 is not spread predominantly through an airborne route.
I must correct you it is predominantly airborne spread.
As are the common cold, flu, RSV.
Households across Britain are subject to rollercoaster energy bills because we allow this artificial link to continue.
More and more of our power comes from cheaper home grown green energy sources, but our bills can't come down while we allow global fossil fuels to set the price.
At the same time our regional grid networks are making record profits and paying Billions into tax havens at the wenspnse of British bill payers. We need to end this abuse of a monopoly position and regulate their profit margins as we already do with energy retailers.
These two measures combined, breaking the link and capping grid profits - could knock hundreds of pounds off of household bills - overnight.
@CarlyStatham@BBCNews I think some of the bigger charities can get a bit political. I have had some involvement in big and now small ones and I think the smaller ones are more agile and less political. I would tell them go to a smaller dog charity.
@PetsatHome I've been looking over a month for more stock of
Seriously Good Wet Cat Food Sumptuous Chicken Soup Selection 4 x 40g in either my St Albans local store or within 5 miles or so. I cannot get hold of it. When are you getting more stock?
@DaleVince Hi Dale, if you have not already, please consider joining or moving across to bluesky as Octopus energy recently have done. https://t.co/0TiYp8czj5
We've taken the plunge / dipped our tentacles / floated on over to Bluesky. Whatever your favourite sea metaphor is, you should follow us: https://t.co/xPeeQUcA7I
P.S. we'll be sticking around here too ✌️
@RobGMacfarlane There's a good website with lots of songs listed with music links. I knew of some already such as those of Neil Young and Radiohead but found a lot more through the site. https://t.co/rETptlOxSc
@OctopusEnergy Hi slightly off topic but I'm wanting to leave X for bluesky and wonder if you would consider opening a bluesky account? I get my octopus updates such as free electricity slots and special offers often through X and don't want to miss out but...I really want to leave X now.
My latest piece for the @IndependentSage s*bstack series on how "Just the flu" has been such a damaging theme throughout the pandemic...
Pls retweet to stop the algorithm suppression on the link!

@globalhlthtwit Well some people with a Y chromosome don't want to f..k up the world or go to war. The trouble is those who seek power are the ones who should not get it.
