    I think that Dave will get them to reconsider their price hikes and pass some of their good fortune onto their customers. He will also make sure they are paying the correct amount of tax to the exact penny. Give or take a few billion.

    Bless em. They're worth every penny - they are a shining example of the consumer benefits of privatisation.

    most of that was earned from the wind turbines in Canada and overseas. Centrica made a loss in the UK

    Are you still working for BG? Or have you gone solo?
    A lad at work is talking about upgrading his boiler, so I thought about you.

    Centrica's profits were only up 15%

    The 23% figure is the increase in profit of centrica's 'residential energy division' - British Gas.

    Question is why are you trying to say BG made a loss when the company have publicly announced that it made a huge profit of £345 million? Again, this is British gas I'm talking about . Centrica's made 1.45 billion!

    I believe in fairies, the Easter bunny, and Keith Hill.

    Would these be wind turbines that many people keep saying aren't cost effective?

    BG is split into lots of different sectors. I work for service and repair and we made a loss overall. Centrica Energy made the profit you refer to and Centrica Storage also made a loss.
    Seems what Centrica do BG gets slammed for it!!

    Like if you dont buy your kid the right present Father Christmas gets balmed!!
