Shouldn't our PM Boris Johnson get the bloody banks (partly responsible for the mess the country is in) to pledge to keep all Energy direct debits frozen at the same level as last year and to pay any extra amounts themselves, as a gesture to the country. At the same time get the Energy companies to agree NOT to charge those banks more than 10% extra - absorbing the rest themselves, out of their massive profits? All this just to cover November to March? He can announce this just before he leaves next month.

Thank you for the call, No10.

They are all in it together !

It's one big club and we're not in it.

Stupid Starmer comes up with his way to solve the energy crisis - by costing us (tax payers) £28 billion. DOH! Stupid Truss and stupid Sunak instantly copy and make similar suggestions. Since votes are won by NOT costing anything, wouldn't it be a good idea to get the BANKS and the ENERGY COMPANIES to foot the bill? Probably gently giving them tax deductions in return (punters and media too stupid to understand that means, in the end, we pay)? DOH! It is SOOO obvious and our leaders are SOOO stupid.

The Stupids - a fantastic group! Starmer, Truss, Boris and Sunak.

Everyone loved The Stupids, and even gave the last version a majority of 80.

What'll we do with The Sensibles? On next - after a long gap, until the GE.
