Has David Cameron broken his promise to force energy companies to put everyone on the cheapest tariff? |

Not sure about this, OFG. I saw all these so-called promises to put people on lowest tariffs, but am surprised if DC meant that companies would be forced to do more than clean up their act and publicise their cheapest tariff. |

The official announcement by Ed Davey before Christmas was very much in line with maximum 4 tariffs, clear communication of lowest tariff. Trying to bury what DC said off the hoof in October. |

I have always been of the opinion that the Tariff system used for the pricing of services was simply a way of making MORE profit as apposed to giving the consumer choice and the best deal,..... "Bullsh*t baffles Brain" syndrome |

Probably not a good example, but if I go into a shop to buy tins of soup it shows me the price on the shelf as 85 pence per tin, so I buy six tins it will cost me £5.10. |

The promises by politicians to curb excessive profits and astronomical bonuses for company bosses is no more than pie in the sky talk. If I were a swearing man I would say "Taurus Excreto" ( which is latin for brown stuff that comes out of the backside of a male cow). |

One foot in the grave - I certainly do, and it does not matter if they are Tory, Labour or Lib-Dem. Even if the UKIP and other parties get in they will also fall for the bribes of big business. |

There have been several reports of "Flying Pigs" over number 10. :-( |

Just had an 18.9% price increase from my energy supplier effective 1st June, 2013. So my days of boasting how cheaply I was getting my energy will soon be over. |
