Q. if rising #energy prices are related to the costs of #gas (caused by the #UkraineWar) why have standing charges (that are intended to reflect energy firms fixed costs) also nearly doubled?
I may have missed something, but its hard to see how #infrastructure & other administrative costs have nearly doubled in a year?
Is this the smoking gun of #greedflation & energy firms booming profits?
