Commenting on Ofgem figures showing that energy companies are making £105 profit per customer, a 40% increase in the last three months, Liberal Democrat Shadow Energy and Climate Change Secretary, Simon Hughes said: “Energy companies clobbered households even as they struggled through the cold snap.
“Cynical price cuts now won’t disguise bumper profits made on the back of grossly unfair fuel bills.
“Energy firms should be forced to show how much profit they make on every pound they charge at the bottom of every fuel bill.”

Which brings me nicely onto the subject of Cold Weather Payments.
For the whole of the old county of Glamorgan there are some four Met Office run weather stations, to serve the whole of this old county of some 1.4 million people, anyone looking to claim cold weather payments in Maesteg will have their temperature taken at St. Athan on the coast in the Vale of Glamorgan; there's around 3ºC difference between Bridgend & Maesteg, gawd knows what the temperature difference is between Maesteg & St Athan.
