Gas bills will go up in the UK

No point saying they may go up to £1000 a year they bloody well will go up to £1000 a year, mark my words this will happen.

Gas bills 'to top £1,000 a year'

Energy bills could rise by more than 60% within the next few years, a report for the UK's biggest domestic energy supplier Centrica has said.

Umm, safe bet! Everything derived from fossil fuels will continue to sky rocket.

Every bill is going up.

Currently gas prices are linked to oil prices.

However, whilst the known supply of oil has hit it's peak, gas is a long, long way
off it's peak. As this change becomes more apperant we can expect to see a
de-linking of the two.

I guess with all this global warming, this won't matter as we will all be toasty this winter.
