The bastard theiving local council here has set up an energy company. My energy tarriff is due to renew. The "Robin Hood" company is offering me £200 less a year (£10000 for Mr Darwin, sir). They are "not for profit". I have switched. E ON bastards (thieves) are cross about it. Good.
Could COrbyn be right? rubschin:
-
They claim they're "not for profit" because, without taxpayers money, they would make a loss.
-
I am paying the sodding tax already!!
-
So are thousands who aren't getting their energy from the council.
-
Switch then :thumbsup:

Pure democracy and pure communism are the same thing.
We do not live in a "pure democracy".
Very basic politics I admit.

I suppose the only downside is that once mongs like you tell everybody about it and they all switch, the people that ackchewlee generate the stuff will put the price up as all their profitable customers have moved...? whistle:

From another forum in Cyprus...
Did anyone see tonight's 'Dispatches' on Channel 4?
If not, then you really should.
That some ambulance services are now having to rely on volunteers and charity to cope with the impact of the government's cuts is an absolute disgrace.
Jeremy Corbyn is trying to oppose this shower of sh*t Tory government, but is being thwarted at every turn by right-wing Blairite w*nkers who are more than happy to vote with the Tories on every attack they commit against the ordinary people of the UK.
As the cuts bite ever deeper (and they will), the likes of Google, Apple, Vodaphone, Amazon and all the other thieving, tax-dodging b*stards are laughing at us - at ALL of us!
If nothing else, Corbyn has stirred up the game of politics far more than one of the other three Labour leadership candidates would ever have even dared to contemplate. The vast majority of the press and media keeping digging up ancient interviews with Corbyn to convince us that he is unelectable, and if that doesn't work they simply invent stories against him. They're rattled, which seems strange when he is so 'unelectable'.
I agree, it's a deliberate tactic to keep people from focusing on what the government is actually doing. But it can't last forever. My only hope is that, eventually, people are going to become so monumentally pissed off that the anger becomes too much for the government to keep a lid on - even with all the gerrymandering and tinkering they are doing behind the scenes to help keep them in power for eternity!
Hey, maybe the Tories will destroy themselves in the aftermath of the forthcoming referendum. Or maybe not.
In the meantime, they need to be exposed and opposed at every opportunity and if not Corbyn is not the one who can do that, then, realistically, who can - the LibDems and their leader (whatever he's called)?
