UK: Millions Could Suffer from Cold-Related Illnesses Because They Can’t Afford Energy Bills

The memes are coming true

Is the government just going to let people freeze to death, while instructing them it’s necessary because of the anal rights of the Donbass?

People are just going to respond with “brrrrr OK”?

More than two million households in the UK are unable to pay their gas and electricity bills due to skyrocketing prices and may disconnect from the grid without informing their suppliers, Bill Bullen, the CEO of Utilita Energy, has warned.

The company has surveyed 750 households and found out that many were still using outdated prepayment meters which had no digital connectivity, meaning that a supplier is unable to detect when someone has unplugged.

Bullen noted that this could result in a rise in cold-related illnesses and deaths this winter and urged fellow power utilities to swap old devices for the smart ones.

Having no choice but to sit at home without heating or light is unacceptable, and our government and the regulator must intervene immediately to stop self-disconnections,” he said, adding that there is no excuse for “legacy” meters to be used unless a customer refuses a digital one.

I guess that means that if you have the digital one, they will make sure it stays on and just keep charging you.

They probably charge interest too, lol. People will be getting buried under $100,000 winters.

But at least Donbass children will have the option to cut their dicks off.
