Fuel Poverty

[HairyArsedBloke]

I'm very poor. Maybe I should apply for some free stuff.





On the other hand. I don't really want any 'official' looking into just how poor I am.

Sorry, I'll turn it down from 28 to 26C.

Well the outdoor heated 50 metre swimming pool doesn't help I must admit

If we have hoses banned during water shortages, then surely there is an argument to ban waste of precious fuel. It's this waste and frivilous usage that increases demand and allows countries such as Russia to exploit us with exhorbitant prices.

People should just wear more clothes and cut their usage instead of wearing shorts in green houses !! How anybody gets a 5K annual heating bill amazes me

Salary - £11k
Fuel bill - £2k

Hey Gordon, I'm double poverty. Where's my free stuff?

This is defined as paying 10%+ of your pay on gas/electicity. So as an example someone taking home 50K living in a big house and spending 5K on fuel is in poverty, same as someone on 10k and paying out 1k. Doesn't add up to me.
