None of the changes will affect milliband. Once the whole fiasco is over, milliband will swan off to a lucrative job and a wealthy retirement leaving the wreckage that is the UK behind.
The guys nuts. They could start by cutting the daily standing charges which have risen by 88% in less than 2 years. THe average duel fuel customer now has to pay £320 a year - and that's before they use a single unit of gas or electricity.
Yes my daily charge costs more for the sc than the gas and electric use combined. Who is Milliband trying to fool does he really believe fuel prices will come down, they told us we would save money when we had North sea gas, that worked well didn't it. Starmer must think we are idiots when he says we are not forcing people or telling them how to live, while trying to force us into EV's and having heat pumps.
Cos we are all trapped and being sacrificed on the altar of net zero One man’s narcissistic ego trip Overgrown student utopia that we are all paying for
Energy companies are making billions in profits. The UK has the highest leccy cost in the world, by a huge amount. The energy companies should bearing the cost not the public. But they're just too greedy.
Yes they are greedy but wholesale prices are extortionate due to green polices. Why do we need so much false and confusing choice energy should be publicly owned never privatised.
Ed Miliband is advised by NESO. Who has significant control of NESO, a supposed independent body? Answer - Ed Miliband. So he's advising himself. Shows how the Labour government operates.
Why are we paying three times as much as other countries for energy. The bottom line is what counts now, as poverty increases. Politicians are just lying through their back teeth and this prat will leave us in energy poverty. Carbon capture is extremely expensive at a time when they have just crippled industry. Iies lies lies. We are all incandescent.
Traveling all day on a bus,, sitting all day in a shopping mall nursing a cup of warm tea. Just two of the things a lot of pensioners do to stay warm in the winter. There is climate change but it's a natural orcurence. Nothing we do will stop it. Governments have jumped on the band waggon. Tax tax tax.
Difficult decisions indeed how easy these words roll off the tongue meanwhile back at the ranch we see the PM and Chancellor traveling first class on train journeys being chauffeur driven here there and everywhere in top of the range cars meanwhile cutting winter fuel payments from pensioners whose weekly income is well lower than the minimum weekly wage shame on the Labour Government
Every pensioner should get pension credit its not fair to the pensioners who dont get pension credit the rules need to change so everypensioner can get pension credit
Who gives one about global emissions, especially when we produce but 1%?? We should focus on delivering cheap energy to our people and then worry about emissions thereafter. People shouldn't be paying the price for "green" energy.
We produce but 1% because people keep buying junk that's made in China. And you can choose: pay the price for green energy now, or pay the price for not doing anything and dealing with the results of climate change (flooding, more migration from the south etc...)
It's more like 2% when our aviation, shipping and the emissions we export are taking into consideration. But there are plenty of countries that produce 2%, 1% and less than 1% of global emissions. The point is all those 1% add up.
@@Richard482 What about China who account for 35% of emissions globally, who have no interest in the "green" agenda, who have over 1,000 coal power plants? The poorest in society will struggle the most when we get rid of cheap energy sources.
@@adds-kz3oc You mean apart from the $890bn invested by China in its low carbon sector in 2023 alone? While China relies heavily on coal, one of the reasons the countries energy needs are so high is because other countries such as the UK, have exported their manufacturing to China because it's cheaper. Hey if every country manufactured their own stuff, China's CO2 emissions would fall, while those other countries would rise. Fossil fuels aren't cheap when everything is taken in to consideration.
@@Richard482 As CO2 is not capable of any climate emergency it doesn't matter plants convert it to growth and even the Sahara is greening as it did once before. CO2 is needed we are in a CO2 famine and that's reality.
It is clear how relaxed Starmer is about record immigrants coming across the channel when he’s the only major leader wasting their time at this event. Miliband couldn’t care less about freezing pensioners.
Milliband has the look of a lunatic. I really do have to pinch myself....the last 8 years have been utter madness. Hopefully we all wake up and it's just been a horrible nightmare.
Like all labour politicians he’s another liar, by the time 2030 comes round, bills will be far higher than the £300 he’s talking about. We as a country pay more for our electricity and gas than anywhere else in the world
So we have to wait 6 years for our energy bills to come down? By that time they could already have increased by hundreds and already be too late for some people! Planning for the long term future is important yes, but what about the short-mid term where people are struggling now?! We have a huge supply in the North Sea we could be drilling (if Labour didn’t scrap that plan) and bring everyone’s energy bills down quicker, and families and pensioners can heat their homes in the winter without worrying about the cost whilst being able to live their lives. Then when the time is right and everything is ready, we can then move to renewables quickly without it affecting people. This ‘short term pain’ (as Starmer put it), is completely avoidable and unnecessary. People shouldn’t have to struggle to choose whether to heat their homes in the winter or not. I’ve been working extra shifts and giving the money to my nan so she can put the heating on this winter, I’m not letting her live in a cold house and freeze, just because she’s £20 over the pension credit threshold and therefore has had her winter fuel allowance stopped. It’s disgusting and I won’t be forgetting or forgiving this when it comes to the next election.
Yes the state pension is being increased, but the threshold tax means that even people who are receiving state pension will be liable tax by 2028 when they are planning to increase the threshold. I have a small pension as well as the state pension and it takes me over the tax threshold.
Why have the rules on savings income not been changed. Where peoople are reliant on interest to supplement their pension ( which incidentally after 2 better years will now be refucing for savers) the archaic assumption is that pensioners who haved saved earn over 10% interest !!. This directly prevents a claim for pension credit and is cloud cuckoo land . As usual people who have saved are penalised
You mean the Milankovitch Cycles? They are not responsible for rapidly rising global temperatures. Carbon dioxide also plays an important role in this cycle.
Really,I know what Im doing in the next five years time then,I be living in the dark ages,All your faults for voting for the clowns all the time and letting in more immigrants
What a waste of money, they all travelled there in a Plane ✈️ when it could have all been done on a zoom call. Every word is a lie. They choose the institution that back their plans. The IFS weren’t believed in this instance.
What are the blades of these wind turbines made from? Fibreglass, which is made from oil. The carbon used to make them and solar panels will never be recouped in their 20-25 year life span if you include the carbon used to recycle them. Wind and Solar just mean higher bills, just lots of money for the elites.
The eco zealot Ed Miliband, who wants to fill the countryside with electric pylons wind turbines and solar farms all in the aid of achieving the impossible Net Zero. Because of his loopy loony ideologies blackouts will become commonplace. As well as costing every man woman child and business in this country many thousands of pounds. Not to mention the jobs that will be lost because energy will become so prohibitively expensive for our manufacturing industries they will not be competitive on the world stage and simply go bust as a result. All in pursuit of something it will make absolutely no difference whatsoever to the world's climate.
The figure is 2% when our aviation, shipping and exported emissions are taking into consideration. There are plenty of countries which produce 2% or less of global emissions, but all those 2% and less add up.
Highest number of wind farms in Europe gives us the highest electricity prices in Europe. More wind farms means more contraint payments will have to be made for when the wind turbines don't turn. Millibrain is mad and deluded to think that this will produce cheaper electricity. Another eco zealot on the gravy train!
It's like watching Wallace without Grommet ,a total airhead who has no relation with reality. To think this man ran for prime minister, although to be fair the one we have at the moment is worse. The gormless look on his face when asked how much energy bills would rise is priceless comedy. Cracking cheese Grommet 😂😂
This guy is dangerous get him out of politics

Highest energy bills in europe lowest pension in europe
Because it’s not all state owned.. 👍👍😎
Highest energy bills in the world actually
This man is a complete waste of time .what world is he living in .Go away, you 🤡

@Darren-g6f Covers the Shareholders holiday in Dubai fund
Half of my bill is standing charge it's ridiculous
The less fuel I use the more standing charge I pay 🤷♀️🤷♀️
What a total self centred Bell end. The lunatics have taken over the asylum
Said that since 5th July . Never heard so much 💩from a Gov. 👺
Why have we got to pay more than any other country in èurope ?
Because we let them walk all over us. They know we don't kick off & let them get away with anything.
Cos we are all trapped and being sacrificed on the altar of net zero One man’s narcissistic ego trip Overgrown student utopia that we are all paying for
Yes
Because we don't mind paying more....
@roi maybe you don’t but don’t speak for us all!!
He's right lower bills by £300 for pensioners already because they can't put the heating on because of this government? 😡😡
Miliband needs to be locked up for our safety.
They all do!!
"well look". Whenever a politician starts with these words you just know a load of BS will follow

Thousands in tax now for a possible £300 off energy bills in 6 year time.... Massive TOOL!
This guy is absolutely bonkers.
SICK AND TIRED OF THIS GOVERNMENT CONTINUALLY BLAMING EVERYBODY ELSE EXCEPT THEMSELVES!
What a prat
🤣🤣🤣👍
£300. In 2030 will probably be worth about £3:00 if Labour stay in power.
If energy becomes cheaper to produce they will increase taxes
What a plonker he is
Miliband is clearly mad
You made me laugh,and Ed Miliband is mad as a hatter
You are right.
MAD MILLBAND. IS CLEARLY MAD.
Just waiting for politicians to tell the elderly to wear more next
Yes and to do star jumps🙄🙄
His lips are moving so he’s telling lies
God Miliband is deluded and deranged
They keep going on about the triple lock but if they don't put the tax allowance up we pay more tax on it so we're no better off its pathetic.
I'm £3.50 over and have a tax demand for £350
Pathetic

Actually it worse than that one day the Earth will probably expire short of CO2 necessary for photosynthesis and oxygen.

Mean while the rest of the world gets on with sorting out their problems , and we are still mired in politically controlled half science
not even half science but junk ignoring logic and the laws of science.
Every pensioner should get pension credit its not fair to the pensioners who dont get pension credit the rules need to change so everypensioner can get pension credit
We need to re nationalise our energy companies so that we are not paying for dividends of the share holders.
We can't as we have sold them off to foriegn companys
Has for the chancellor she should withdraw from her job for false CV act 1981, counterfeiting act 1981
Mad Miliband. That poor lady wll probably be dead before this government will help.
If Milliband wants to reduce carbon going into the atmosphere, plant more trees that capture carbon.
No money back from trees
Absolutely.
😂😂😂😂😂🙄😎
Just take in more immigrants , that will make it better
Mad ED 😢highest electricity prices in Europe and the lowest pension. The man should be ashamed and locked up

If solar and wind are so cheap why does Britain have the most expensive energy costs ?
