With temperatures falling and households turning on the heating, the price of gas has never been more important.
So how much is going to cost us and what’s driving those prices?

Scottish Power and all the big energy companies are manipulating prices as they go along.
We get 5% of gas from Russia.. what about her own North Sea Gas ???
It's global warming i mean climate change caused by humans ahem.
The cost to extract gas is the same price it was two days ago. The increase in cost is the market making money
Tell the truth ,,,,,,,,
North Sea gas is ours but thanks to the do gooders in this country who didn't like our gas silos as they ruined the landscape we now have to send our gas abroad to be stored and sent back to us at a price ,thanks to the do gooders in this country .when will the government tell the truth
So the gas from the north sea would be more than enough to fuel Scotland alone… gotcha!
The UK isn’t prepared as usual.Short term British penny pinching by Government is to blame,no surprise there!
3 weeks ago it was 45 a week, this week it was 69 that was just gas. We generally not using electricity and that’s around 10-12 a week. I built up credit over the summer so I’m protected just as long as it don’t get colder but chances are it won’t be enough it was 700 in credit and I think monthly costs are touching 320 a month with a dd set at 250.
What's going on…. companies ripping people off and being greedy.
Not difficult to put everything in public ownership
12 years of a self serving government.
Lining their own pockets.
What about the fuel under our feet?
excellent . fill the gap from the US .at 4% higher from market price . the French is paying😀
It's the war in Ukraine that doing this !!!

Putin should know The west is willing to suffer cost of living and Energy crisis and maybe fight WW3 for Ukraine's right to join NATO and reclaim the annexed breakaway republics that would not join the 2014 coup.
President Biden caused ALL of this disaster worldwide. This didn't exist when Trump ran it.
F the pm f the government f the energy companies f the news f them all t ing peace of 💩💩💩💩💩💩🤮🤮🤮🤮🤮🤬🤬🤬🤬🤬🤬🤬
Brits, aren't that smart. Lack of infrastructure since WWII; uninsulated homes (in a northern country). And Brexit, recently. Wow, this nation.
Everyones fault except, except the UK governments!!
extremely good
LNG from US- at what costs? The guy said if gas stopped coming from Russia… I thought the whole point of sanctions is stop using gas/ oil from Russia. Have we been a bit hypocritical here? We need to stop relaying on cheap Russian supplies.
UK is Denmark?
so they close power stations close gas production and yet still blame everything else but stopping producing power lies lies lies
got ti keep the shareholders warm though they won't be going cold in winters will they , profit before people , aye !
1:35 That’s Belarus.
Enough of showing it on the graph 📊. The guy in suite should go on the ground and show real plp footages Street by street house by house instead of staying warm in the studio & just chatting crap. Why sanctions Russia 1st place? Mr. Johnson said we are not dependent on Russian gas, so why we r in a mess?
The only people that got hit by UK boycotting Russian gas is its indigenous people. Hasnt stopped Putin at all, as other countries buy it
Would rather have cheaper gas than the Ukraine!
Put a jumper on.
Russia lol…. flipping sheep
The tories are a disaster… Sunak is clearly incompetent and only supports his rich friends. It’s time for another new conservative leader or it’s time for an election…
Firstly they don't mention anything about the tories getting rid of gas storage towers, closed office blocks and shops leave their lights on also the gas prices have fallen for companies making them a 6 billion profits while we pay more on our bills, tell the truth sky stop lying to us as the uk hasent had any gas from Russia since September this year
I've always heard in the news that the uk was never dependant on european or Russian gas or oil ,and that we quite self sustainable but this seems very untrue,
Operation freeze pensioners to show solidarity with Ukraine goes on
NEXT, THE MEDIA WILL TELL US THAT RUSSIA is controlling THE WEATHER !!!!!
Wouldn't it have been nice for our politicians to think a little ahead for the past decade or so and build some resiliancy into our storage, transmission lines, heating and insulation systems? No, let's just spend a trillion on Brexiting, rah rah.
Mines gone from £95 a month to £395 a month. While all the MPs have shares and are getting filthy rich.
LNG 70% is now being brought from Russia by EU uk so don't believe this Sky propaganda news channel its not telling the full facts.
This is what Westminster wanted for the UK. It's just moreso than they anticipated. The UK should have had a national oil and gas company.
thanks greta, lets all freeze to death to save the planet.
Britain can have a form of power that is safe, clean, no waste, storable, and limitless, it is called TIDAL POWER. With seven thousand miles of coastline, the UK could generate as much electrical power that it needs. In areas like the Bristol channel alone, the amount of power that could be generated is estimated to provide up to 10% of UK requirements with many other potential sites around the coast to provide the electricity that would make the UK self-sufficient in power supply.
Klause Shwabbe and the WEF are very happy about all this?
The market is highly efficient which is why the UK pays the highest electricity prices in the world. Gas outflows to Europe in Spring/Summer and they store it. We closed our storage, recently re-opened though at low capacity. We import in winter. Some might call this stupid. Sounds like a cunning plan. It is all to make our energy companies highly profitable and compete on an international basis. In the recent past our banks had a TROCE of close to 20% whilst US banks managed on 5% or so. UK consumers are fleeced. Consider the council tax and business rates.
If only we had a centuries worth of coal, gas and oil under our feet and didn’t have to rely on imports. Wouldn’t that be great?
If Putin is still selling oil and gas to the Western nations then Russia deserves to be destroyed with nuclear weapons launched by the West. The Northern Hemisphere is finished MEGA heatwaves forever and ever ☀️🌡️🔥🐵🌚🤠🇺🇲🐺🐷☠️💀⚰️🤣😭🤪😵😜😫😅👹😈👺
UK is in dire need of a energy politics and not squable and bold talk . Where is the nuclear powder? Most homes in UK are in dire need to modernisation and proper insulation. Single brickwalls, two glas windows, flimsy doors are simply out of date. Look at Finlands building codes. The entire building industry in UK needs to be modernised and cost efficent.
