Sounds good in theory but a bad idea if you were to be looking for a mortgage/loan afterwards.
It depends how many people do it.

Crazy idea this. They'll fit pay as you go meters in all houses and turn normal people into criminals
Sure I thought all the people with PAYG meters were criminals.....

Fuel prices will continue to drop over the coming days.

Hopefully the forecourts pass it on to consumers.

It's the cĂșnts who are processing the fuel and making extortionate profits that need to pass this onto the forecourts but aren't.

Yip, it's all about the numbers, that would make the Government step in and take action against the energy providers' profiteering.

It's likely a pipe dream, tho there's only so much shit the people will take. It really depends what the shte hawk rags like the Mail and Express do and they're screaming blue murder about the COL  as loud as any leftie.

13%  inflation expected by December. That's a huge hit to people on the breadline.
The UK has higher inflation than elsewhere because of Brexit.

The response of our MLAs, MPs and all the chronies who support them is truly pathetic.  Late to the party on school uniforms, going round in circles on transferring energy support to the most needy, and still taking their wages.  It is absolutely disgusting.  They are a bunch of bluffers, stealing a living.

Have turned off 5live recently as its non stop doom and gloom, its as if they can find the most extreme view on the predictions they can find and run with it..

Few things, we can all do without a few things but not prepared to do without because its norm

Phones, data, takeaway's, treats, going to the pub, getting over priced coffee, brand labeled food, starters, non essential journeys or driving to local shop, holidays, turning the thermostat down, netflix and the rest, replica football tops (never had one)

I'm sure there is a hell of a lot more crap we could cut out and be a lot more healthier for it, but are you will to do without?

Some of the above might even bring down costs from the energy providers if we didn't use so much
None of us are getting out of here alive, so please stop treating yourself like an after thought. Ea

Inflation in reality is probably 20% at the minute. 13% on what was measured months ago. All the economic figures you get are from work done months ago. There is no real up to date / current figures.

Our politicians are stealing a living. c***ts need voted out. But we'll not do that because of flags.

The solution is a pay rise. Get one or get a new job.
