Why is it that three months after the Chancellor's high-profile intervention on electricity prices no action has been taken to refer to the big, vertically integrated producers that suppress competition the Competition Commission or to stop the blatant price discrimination against low-income metered consumers?

If oil prices fall to the level before the recent shock, is it therefore Government policy that petrol duties will be increased and the increase in taxation on the North sea reversed?
