What the petition asks

Stop energy companies installing key meters for those that are in energy arrears and stop disconnections for at least 1 year
The energy crisis isn't going to end anytime soon. 70%of the world's energy is consumed by the wealthiest 10%. The first law of thermodynamics means there is no quick fix, this means low income families will struggle. By ensuring a continued supply of energy through stopping disconnections lives can be saved
