EDF is a French, state owned company now. Were it not, when it makes a profit the shareholders make a profit. If you have a private pension you would have too. If it makes a loss, they take a hit.
Year on year they smash it. French ffs. Taking back control. These are English. Safer than Tesla energy. https://ecotricity.co.uk/?partner=GO1&utm_source=google&utm_medium=cpc&utm_campaign={CampaignName}&utm_content={AdGroupName}&utm_term=&gad_source=1&gad_campaignid=1552951175&gbraid=0AAAAAD4vQ-ds2npAJn5tKi0ThY9Z5Xx1H&gclid=CjwKCAjwobnGBhBNEiwAu2mpFN6GW3nt444208jBYCgo965drTi4dkudicA9dZNyop3I_M4FBLJ26hoCMVMQAvD_BwE
For 2024. When I was involved with them, a few years before then, their turnover was about £120bn. Certain to have been higher by 2024. About 10% profit then, or less, for all the risk, all the time, all the uncertainty. And it is almost entirely state owned. What were it's annual costs? What percentage of profit to outlay is there? What about other years? What about French government subsidies? EDF are a bad overall example, though they are certainly captive to the future price complexities. The big money in energy is made by outfits creaming off heavy subsidies, which comes from the bills, for which I hope they kneel before a figure of Ed Miiliband every day, he being the idiot who started this horrific structure in 2008, followed by a column of similar idiots and now the chief idiot back again. Again, it is the labyrinthine and chaotic system we have that causes our mega energy prices. Engineers at the front end of this are in quiet despair at the spectacular and zealous ignorance of lawmakers here. I know that first hand, but if you think 10%< profit is a very bad thing, fair enough.
Is Nigel ‘350million for the NHS’ Farage lying again ‘ He has stated that his proposed immigration changes would “save taxpayers £234bn” by eliminating benefits access and deporting migrants who fail to meet new criteria. However, this figure was based on a report from the Centre for Policy Studies (CPS), which has since been withdrawn due to unreliable statistics. The think-tank said in a statement that the “fiscal data contained within this report is the subject of dispute, meaning that the overall cost estimates should no longer be used”. Jonathan Portes, an economist at King’s College London, later reassessed the numbers used by the CPS and found that recent migrants would instead make a net positive fiscal contribution. Portes, who is also a senior fellow at UK in a Changing Europe think-tank, wrote in a blog post in May that had the CPS used the correct figures, “they would have found a net benefit of over £100bn”. . Previously Vote Leave had pledged to spend £350 million earmarked for the European Union on the UK's struggling health service - a promise that would no doubt have been a key decider for many of those in favour of Brexit’
