Energy switching campaign a potentially trailblazing way to bring down bills - Flint

Caroline Flint MP, Labour's Shadow Energy and Climate Change Secretary, said in response to the launch of the first UK-wide collective energy switching campaign by Which? and 38 degrees:

“This is a simple but potentially trailblazing way to help bring down soaring energy bills. Even if this Government won’t stand up to powerful vested interests in the energy industry, I’m confident the British public will. When people come together, they’ll have more power to negotiate cheaper energy bills with the big energy companies.

“It sets an exciting precedent which organisations such as local authorities and housing associations could take up to negotiate better energy deals on behalf of their residents.”
