SIR – I was wondering how many MPs have shares in British Gas because British Gas is making massive profits and is able to get away with it.

You don’t hear a squeak from the politicians.

If you add the profits from the other members of the energy cartel it must be huge and yet the politicians do nothing.

Most of the energy companies are foreign-owned and the profits are just transferred to their own countries and not invested in Britain.

Something should be done and urgently.
