What the petition asks
I want the government to stop energy companies increasing energy prices they are making vast profits so there is clearly no need for this
The government are public servants and are supposedly in position to serve the best interests of their constituents, people are starving, getting into huge debts due to the economic mess this country is in so stopping the increase and pushing for reductions is in the whole countries interest
