Soon to be the biggest issue in the UK whenever they have a break from talking about Corona for five minutes.
As most will be aware, energy prices for most have gone up quite a bit lately. These prices by some estimates could double or even triple in the next year. The price cap that has limited these price increases to a certain degree is due to be lifted in the foreseeable future.
The main cause of this seems to be political instability involving Russia who control most of the gas supply into Europe. They appear to be using the supply of gas as a political tool, but of course they deny this. Many political analysts have believed for a little while that Russia may be on the brink of invading Ukraine.
What are your thoughts on this? Are you worried about how it could effect you? Do you not really care? Do you think that many governments in this country have failed by making us so reliant on foreign energy? Could we have spent money on Nuclear energy and Fracking instead of on projects like HS2 which will not be any help to the majority of people? One thing is for sure, these energy price rises will effect everyone as costs will increase for businesses which will then be passed on to the consumer.
