When people die (and they will), the left will blame climate change and mandate more of the policies that got us here in the first place.
BBC (8/23/22) reports: "Half of UK households are facing fuel poverty this winter unless the government does more to help with energy bills, EDF has warned. Philippe Commaret, a senior executive at EDF Energy UK, said without further support, people face a 'catastrophic winter.' Energy bills are predicted to be nearly three times higher than last winter. A household is considered to be in fuel poverty if it has to spend 10% or more of its income on energy. From October, all UK households will start receiving payments providing a £400 discount on their fuel bills, with eight million low-income households set to receive an additional £650. But the Liberal Democrats, Labour and most major energy suppliers are calling for further support for households, including for the energy price cap to be frozen at current levels. The government has said no further measures will be announced before a new prime minister is in place from 5 September."
