Angus paying £1,733 per year on energy bills, making it 52nd most expensive in Great Britain.

Households in Angus are paying on average £1,733 per year, making it the 52nd most expensive place in the Britain for energy bills – out of 408 local authorities.

Scottish households are paying MORE for energy than those in England https://t.co/qIIXi8KBDi

— The National (@ScotNational) June 6, 2022

According to data from comparethemarket.com, households in Angus are already paying 26.3% more than the price cap that is set to be introduced in October this year.

The data also shows that people across Scotland are paying more on their bills than compared to England and Wales.

People across Scotland, including in Angus are paying the price for sky high energy bills, despite Scotland having an abundance of resources in oil and gas and renewables.

Under Westminster control, the vast revenue from Scotland’s oil and gas industry has been squandered by UK governments for decades and now it is consumers in Angus who are getting hammered with higher average energy bills, with bills here being the 52nd most expensive in Great Britain.

This is also a result of the outrageous and expensive transmission charges that are charged in Scotland for companies to access the national grid here.

The measures announced by the Chancellor last month – welcome though they were – will barely scratch the surface of the rocketing energy bills crippling households now and in the winter months to come.

High fuel bills in Angus and across Scotland lies squarely at the door of the Westminster government and shows why Scotland needs the full range of powers that will come with independence.

I started working for Graeme’s office after graduating from Abertay University and while I was studying a post graduate at Dundee University. I then went on to work for Graeme full time as his constituency assistant.
