'Fatcats should not benefit from war profits while Brits struggle to pay bills'
British Gas fatcat Chris O’Shea picking up a potential £1.6million bonus would add insult to injury for customers struggling to pay soaring bills.
The Chief Executive of Centrica, owner of British Gas, needs to think hard when he would be benefiting from Vladimir Putin’s invasion of Ukraine. Add the scandal of British Gas contractors laughing about breaking into the house of a family to install a more expensive pre-payment meter and the public backlash could be molten.
War profits should not be channelled into the wage packets of bosses already on huge money when householders and businesses are being fleeced in a broken energy market.
The case is overwhelming for a loophole-free windfall tax to subsidise bills and tighter regulation to impose corporate responsibility while opinion polls find sustained popular approval for renationalisation of the energy sector to run it in the public interest.
O’Shea risks emulating a predecessor, Cedric Brown, lampooned in the 1990s as Cedric the Pig for pocketing a massive rise.

M25 road rage murderer Kenneth Noye’s crocodile tears are a public attempt to burnish a sordid image.
Terrified Danielle Cable is serving a life sentence after witnessing Noye slaughter her boyfriend Stephen Cameron, by stabbing the young man through the heart.
Notorious Noye, central to the £26m Brink’s-Mat gold bullion robbery, is a violent career criminal and hardly somebody whose word would be accepted.
Actions count far more than words and a record longer than his arm tells us that Noye’s a villain who deserves zero respect.

Hopefully, Marcus Rashford sees the funny side of his £280,000 McLaren having a Skoda’s number plate.
Filling up the supercar’s tank may almost cost as much the little city runabout.
