A windfall tax could be one of the measures revealed by the chancellor on Thursday as the energy price hike is set to rise even further. But oil and gas companies have said that could reduce production in the future.

Maybe ,just maybe ,the english electorate will learn from this ......i doubt it though .

Here we go let’s show the people we care about them by bribing them with handouts that they will need pay back.

It’s what they do in other countries already. But doing it now in uk to knock Sue Gray headlines of front page is so obvious. Awful govt bent on anything to remain popular.
