tweeps, just got in from work, shit just got real....... Mum's in tears.....
standing charge also doubled
two further things to note,
the letter also warns that their bill will increase *the the same percentage* in October, ie: to £6,600
the doubling of standing charges is, according to Martin Lewis, to *cover the cost of the companies which went bankrupt*
and I have a question
how the hell are businesses going to cope, expenditure will feed back in to price rises across the board, including food.
Also: what about old peoples' homes??????
there is no cap for business.....

any comment
at the end of April there will be a
10.4% increase in taxes for everyone,
that's 10% less in your net income per month
inflation is 5.4%, with BOE expecting it to rise to over 7%
council tax increasing by the max % allowed
my water bill has doubled since 2020
meanwhile
and bankers have had a cut to their taxes
theguardian.com/business/2022/…
and more people will be charged for prescriptions too
theguardian.com/society/2022/f…
and whilst the criminal greedy bankers went to prison in Iceland, their criminal actions led to all of us seeing a fall in real terms in our incomes
but us plebs need not worry, MPs will be alrighty, amirite?!
and people's mortgage repayments will increase, WHICH WILL LEAD TO everyone's rent also increasing
tories *really DO NOT CARE* for the masses only for themselves and their rich, CORRUPT Russian donors
this article is from before my parents received their new energy bill, which alone makes them this much worse off, never mind less pension, & higher food bills, and the water rates increase
and a reminder: I deliver medicines to around 1,000 disabled, elderly & sick households each month.
None of them even have one fire switched on.
Tories are allowing COVID to run rampant, with no mitigations just as BA.2 becomes dominant
and now it's #heatoreat for all of them
this is more severe austerity than under Cameron even.
The households I deliver to, CANNOT increase their incomes.
some of them WILL DIE as a result of these increasing costs

and let's not any of us, forget the impact this will have on people in receipt of Universal Credit, who will also receive further cuts, thecanary.co/uk/analysis/20…
and rail fares are going up too, my petrol is £1.80 per litre now - and will increase to £2.00 by April
6.4 million homes will be affected by energy price increases. WELL I BET IT's A LOT MORE now, given my parents dramatic increase. How the hell will anyone afford £6,600 next winter?
we already have more food banks in the UK, than the entire EU put together
and we can *DEFINITELY* lay that at the door of tory policies:
even the UN is appalled
and meanwhile tories wipe off debt
it's their sheer incompetence and brextremism causing the 10% hike in NIC in APril
they can waste billions upon billions of our taxes but still make those earning the average salaries that keep the economy moving, living on the breadline
and they're going to cling on to power by any means necessary
ELECTIONS BILL
and the reason we're not helping refugees:
BORDERS BILL
all whilst BOJOs jet flew to Miami to attend the private healthcare providers international conference
NHS PRIVATISATION & US FTA
