🚨🚨 NEW: Big blow for households this morning. @ofgem has buckled to pressure by energy giants and decided not to allow competition back into the energy market. This means higher bills across the board. Here's what's going on: 🧵 (1/6)

Hey @EE, the @get_nous team helped a customer today who was out of contract for her mobile and paying more than £60 a month for 8GB of data. You're offering new customers *30GB* data for £17 a month. How do you justify ripping off a loyal customer by more than £500 a year??

Good, but this barely scratches the surface. The post-Grenfell fire safety assessment on my building hasn't even happened yet! We're 'in a queue' apparently.

[Michael Gove @michaelgove]

Let me be clear: act now or face the consequences. Leaseholders must be able to get on with their lives. We in Government must do more, and I will continue to work with councils and regulators to see that those who move too slowly to make homes safe are held to account.

🚨🚨NEW: @ofgem has just released data showing 2,502 households have received compensation after they were wrongfully forced onto prepayment metres last year. Those figures don't include @BritishGas who are being investigated separately (1/5)

‘Money Saving Expert’ Martin Lewis announces he’s given up.

This is really, really bad

That's a whopping £500 per village hall

[Lewis Goodall @lewis_goodall]

I'm not saying the speech is lacking big vision so far but the current Sky strapline is "Hunt announces £5m for renovating village halls."

Not sure how it happened but a bus crashed into a building near Tottenham Court Road Station. Police, Fire Brigade and ambulance in attendance.

Great to see our @get_nous data on Bills Freedom Day (the day typical earners work until just to pay the bills) in the @MailOnline. Try our calc too to find out long you'll work to pay for essential bills this year (tho you might not like the answer...)
