This is a huge story here and pretty much dominating conversations.

The price cap is going up and up and we are now looking at more than a third of the country saying they are unsure if they can even heat their homes this winter. Heating Vs eating is the decision they will likely have to make.

As said in another thread, this is heading somewhere very ugly and, due to other unhappiness here already, with this added on I wouldn't be surprised if we saw some civil unrest over the winter.
