From flash flooding to wildfires, in the last 2 years unpredictable weather caused by climate change has wreaked havoc among communities across Europe. At the same time the fossil fuel giants that have been wrecking the environment report record profits while also increasing our energy bills.

In Britain the working class has experienced the fastest decline in living standards in decades. Bills, rent and the cost of food keep going up while wages have flatlined. Alongside extortionate rents housing in Britain is the dampest and leakiest in Europe, with thousands of children falling sick from damp homes and mould.    

Public ownership is a great first step but it doesn't fix the problem. We know that governments and businesses cannot be relied on. They tell us that there is not enough to go around but we live in a rich country and a world of plenty. We already produce more than enough for everyone to live a dignified and decent life. So it is up to us in the Trade Union movement to stand up to greedy energy companies.

Energy For All will give every household the essential energy allowance they need to stay safe and well, for free. Higher amounts will be given to those in greater need due to age, health, disability, children or leaky housing. No unfair standing charges or prepayments. Not cut off when money is tight. And leaky homes upgraded.

Come and hear from a number of Trade Union speakers about how you can use your power to advocate for change. Unions are powerful organisations together we can really make a difference.
