“I pledge to stop paying my energy bills from the 1st of October if a million others pledge to do the same.”
Jimmy Dore: As just one of the unfortunate ripple effects of the Ukraine War, residents of the U.K. will see their energy bills skyrocketing, especially as the cold weather months approach. But the populace isn’t standing by and just taking it – more than 100,000 Britons have pledged to refuse to pay their energy bills, and more are signing on for the boycott every day. But don’t fret for the private companies that furnish U.K.’s energy supply – they’re enjoyed record profits throughout.
Jimmy and The Dive’s Jackson Hinkle discuss energy industry privatization’s damning impact on U.K. consumers and the prospects for this energy bill payment strike.
