Obscene Centrica profits confirm the need for tougher energy windfall tax
- Thursday 16 February 2023
Commenting on the massive profits reported by British Gas owner Centrica today (Thursday), Unite general secretary Sharon Graham said:
“British Gas owner Centrica has been coining it in from our massive energy bills while sending bailiffs to prey on vulnerable consumers the length and breadth of the country.
“These energy companies are showing us everything that is wrong with the UK’s broken economy.
“Rishi Sunak should get a grip – pull the plug on rampaging energy profiteering, impose a meaningful, tough windfall tax and give the NHS a pay rise with the proceeds.”
