COLLECTIVE CAMPAIGNING TO REDUCE ENERGY BILLS

Early day motion 1277, tabled 9 April 2014 by Robert Halfon (Conservative). Signed by 16 members.

That this House notes the public's on-going concern with ever-increasing energy prices; further notes that the Big Six energy prices have doubled while profits have more than quadrupled; welcomes the Competition and Markets Authority inquiry into the Big Six but recognises that people need help with their energy bills now; further notes that collective switches across the world have saved people hundreds of pounds; commends the ThisIsTheBigDeal.com campaign to get lower bills by people power and bargaining together; and urges colleagues to sign up and encourage their constituents to do the same in a collective campaign to bring down energy bills.

Signatures by party: Labour 7, DUP 3, Conservative 2, Liberal Democrat 2, Plaid Cymru 1, Social Democratic and Labour Party 1.
