Boris says we will pump in £700m. The project, which is being developed by French energy company EDF, is estimated to cost about £20bn overall.

If the French government can own a power company that can invest their money in overseas projects and keep down their own domestic prices, then why can't the UK do the same?

Most of our electric comes from wind, solar, hydro and nuclear, all produced in this country, why have prices followed gas which, in the main, we import from Russia.


The gas produced in the UK is extracted by companies like Shell etc who sell it on the global market, it’s a commodity that’s in great demand and we have to pay the going rate. It comes from here but it’s not ours.
Under the terms of previous contractual agreements, the price generators of nuclear and solar electricity receive for their product is directly linked to the price of gas generated electricity, it goes without saying that the companies/people who own turbines/ large solar and nuclear generating capacity are doing rather well - their costs haven’t increased what their getting paid has gone through the roof.

Because most homes are heated with gas. Even though only 5% of ours comes from Russia we're still vulnerable to Global prices.


Exactly, and the alternative to cheap Russian gas is expensive LNG from the USA or Quatar
