Comment | The rising energy costs are a smokescreen for the very real problem that could follow, which is a shortage of energy.
Suppliers are struggling and many are close to going bust. Taxing wholesalers is extremely difficult given it's a global market and we cannot control where companies choose to invest or supply to. That's the very reason the energy price cap is with suppliers rather than wholesalers--if we limited what the wholesalers could charge they would go to other countries. |
