It Serves You Right

The Department for Business, Enterprise and Regulatory Reform is having a high-energy week. Having reported on New New Labour's efforts to keep nuclear energy profitable no matter what the cost to the taxpayer, the Department has now discovered that those who follow Government advice on cutting fuel bills end up paying more. It is possible that this comes as a surprise.

A spokesbeing said that if people just upped and followed Government advice without looking carefully at the choices with which the advice was intended to help them, they deserved all they got.
