Expect this to unfortunately continue Temi. It has been reported that prices could rise by 70% - i have recently blogged about it. Energy price rises

70% rise would be outrageous, I think its time the government levy windfall tax on the energy companies.

Your not wrong Temi, though after todays announced it now looks more than possible.
