Amy Appleyard had been paying £136 a month to heat and light her home.
Knowing that energy bills would rise in the autumn, she and her family had cut back on how much power they were using.
But they were shocked to be told that their monthly direct debit would rise more than three times to £442.
They are just one of many UK households who have cut back on energy but are still being charged higher direct debits. But suppliers say bills have to reflect soaring energy prices.
It comes after Business Secretary Grant Shapps wrote to energy firms asking them to ensure bills reflected the amount of energy customers were using, and not to over-estimate charges.

Government will become a 50% shareholder in the project’s development with EDF and will work together with the project company to raise capital investment for the project. The move is the first direct government investment in a new nuclear power project since Sizewell B, the last nuclear power station to be built in the UK, was approved for construction in 1987.
…
The government’s historic £700 million stake in Sizewell C is positioned at the heart of the new blueprint
…
today’s once in a generation plan to put in place powers to shield Britain from global forces
…
also allows for China General Nuclear’s (CGN) exit from the project, including buy-out costs, any tax due and commercial arrangements.

So to recap, the EU, UK, US, AUS, Baltics, and Japan’s scorched earth COVID agenda decimates the global supply chain.
Then they exclude both China and Russia from all activities, whether cooperative or otherwise.
Then the EU, UK, US, AUS, Baltics, Canada and Japan’s sanctions on Russian energy causes energy prices to spike worldwide.
Then the secretary jacks up local energy prices by 3x as much.
Then he blames globalism (LOL).
Then he just barely sneaks the word in down at the bottom of the article that they had gone through all this trouble because China was edging out the elites competitively (this huge article only mentions China once LOL).
It gets to the point where I don’t even need to read the articles anymore. I have achieved tele-electronic-prescience.
