I think anything short of a year's cap at today's prices won't land particularly well. A year's cap would help get a sceptical British public more behind Truss.

Go Nads!

Re: New Prime Minister: Liz Truss
 

Is this actually confirmed or just rumour ?

What would they be frozen at ? The last (current) cap, or the new October cap ?

Re: New Prime Minister: Liz Truss
 

They are frozen to the new cap till January anyway hahaha

If it is as current prices the £400 in my case anyway will be pushed back into hands of Octopus as a larger buffer. I might keep £100 of it but the rest is going back. I was hoping any freeze would last a little longer. IE October Cap price till then end of 2023 at least. Just giving 3 months is not going to ease any anxiety imo

Is there a point where there are enough wings of the Tory party they earn the title the coalition of chaos?

Re: New Prime Minister: Liz Truss
 

Agreed, that's why it's a cap! :D

Re: New Prime Minister: Liz Truss
 

If you read Micks and Pauls posts you will see the reason for mine. I know what a cap is

Re: New Prime Minister: Liz Truss
 

Mick's quote seems to be from The Sun and cites insiders and announces "The Sun can reveal..."

So likely a government leak to see how the public react before announcing anything as official policy.

I have done so and that's why I agree with you mate. No criticism of you intended.

What do you do on a half decent fix? Stick with or bet on the Tories :rofl:

BREAKING: Outgoing Prime Minister, Boris Johnson to address the nation at 7:30am on the steps of 10 Downing Street, before travelling to Balmoral, to meet her Majesty, the Queen and formerly tender his resignation.

Re: New Prime Minister: Liz Truss
 

Looks like the price cap is the same as Labour only funded by borrowing rather than windfall fall tax and some borrowing.

She is flying 500 miles each way to Balmoral to be handed the keys to No 10 by the monarch before addressing the nation from Downing Street
