IMPORTANT (pls share) On Mon the new Ofgem Apr-Jul Energy Price Cap's announced. Yet in practice it's likely to be not hugely impactful as currently - It's GOVT THAT SETS ENERGY PRICES - And GOVT plans to INCREASE EM 20% in Apr (I'm campaigning for it not to) Let me explain..

Scientific American has never endorsed a presidential candidate in our 175-year history—until now. The 2020 election is literally a matter of life and death. We urge you to vote for health, science and Joe Biden for President. scientificamerican.com/artic…
