Of course it will.
Break out the candles!
I am absolutely sick of this shit, every single day there is a new threat to my already skimmed wages. People are trying to live basic peaceful lives and the bunch of tyrants are ruining it for the whole world.
Those wind turbines and solar farms and battery banks that were NIMBY’d to hell in planning permission would come in real clutch right now. It’s too bad we couldn’t have thought that energy Independence would have shielded is from this a bit. Maybe this energy shock will change a few minds.
„Our record-breaking profits aren’t record breaking enough!“ warns shower of greedy bollixes
Everything keeps rising except wages.
That’ll get the protesters back out, more disruption
„Irish families pay on average €1700 per year“ for electricity?!
Our last 3 bills (so 6 months supply) have been about €2000 in total.
Family of 4, no gas, open fire. I guess we are the higher end of the scale then.
But apart from changing providers and turning stuff off, wtf else are we supposed to do?!
surely the shareholders of these energy companies could perhaps work from home or drive a bit slower and then they wouldn’t need to seek further record breaking profits
Can someone explain why electricity companies increase prices when we don’t really use crude oil to produce electricity ? Has natural gas spiked because of the crisis too? I thought it was just LNG not piped gas that would increase
Also about 50% of the electricity is produced via renewables now so again, can someone explain? Google says it’s to do with them always charging the highest possible amount based on the most expensive fuel source regardless of the actual fuel mix but that seems crazy to me
Might just start growing vegetables out the back at this stage and become more self sufficient.
One year fixed on flogas.Sweet for me
Lads honestly what the fuck even is the point anymore
Sure who even likes lube
