Huge hikes are officially sanctioned. The price cap rises by £140/yr on 1 Oct - hitting millions. And it'll likely rise again after that
The majority of homes in England, Scotland and Wales (Northern Ireland is different, see NI energy help) are on standard tariffs, dictated by the regulator Ofgem's price cap. In reality, this isn't actually a cap on price, but on rate, as the more you use, the more you pay.
On 1 Oct, the cap will rise by an average 12% for those on billed meters and 13% for those on prepay meters. All big-name energy firms are pushing their standard rates to the max.
To put that in context, for someone on typical use today the cap is £1,138/yr. From 1 Oct, it will be £1,277/yr. So £100 a month will be less than the average.
The cap lasts six months. It'll change again in April. It's set based on wholesale prices over an assessment period. That's already started for April, and so far it looks like it'll rise again. (See our price cap FAQs for more on how the cap works.)
TOP TIP: Did you compare when the price cap news was announced? If so, you will have been given the wrong price. When Ofgem announced the new rate on 6 Aug it made the news and newspaper headlines, so people rushed to do comparisons.
Yet for those on standard tariffs, the results would've been underplayed as the new prices weren't yet in the databases (comparison sites can't update prices until the firms announce their specific changes - normally a couple of weeks after Ofgem). So even if you did it then, compare now to see the real results.
3. Are you with British Gas, E.on, EDF, Scottish Power or SSE on a standard tariff? Even if savings are small, lock into a cheap fix now to protect against the likely FUTURE hike
The price given on all comparison sites is done over the next 12 months, but the price cap only lasts for six months. And as I've explained above, the mood music is that it will rise again then.
So if you do a cheap 1yr fixed comparison and you can lock in at a cheaper rate for a year, it's worth doing even if the saving is only a few quid, as the likelihood is over the next year the price cap will rise, so your real savings will be bigger.

At least Centamin AISC will be reducing as the open pit clear up continues and the solar power comes on stream , even more so if the POG rises as predicted in 2022!

No, I didn't.

Going to be increasingly difficult to ignore as it will certainly affect all UK Farming ,fishing,ftse companies and other businesses, ie costs , profits, dividend's , even our basic freedom's which are being systematically restricted .
Then of course there are the increasingly empty shelves that will face the public, all unnecessary and brought about by lies, deceit and gullibility!

Hi Rebess,
You will recall the the puzzlement when Josef sold so many shares decided to take a back seat and then sold a huge amount of shares?
Youssef decided to sell his free shares and put it into his property development?
It may be coincidence of course, but is cannot help to raise suspicions!

Cartel given heads up of COT's data prior to its release !

Orders of bullion being blocked by 4 Clearing Bank cartel!

Comex prices locked down by Comex official agent JP Morgan

City of London LBMA involved!

Alternative independent and previously undisclosed source of bullion used by Cartel to buy bullion under the radar discovered and now being used by some refiners.

In this week’s Live from the Vault, Andrew Maguire reveals a market-shifting development set to loosen the insiders’ grip on the silver price. The long-time wholesaler explains the market making banks’ supply and price control mechanism, and illustrates the strategy established to break it.
The precious metals expert lays out his short-term, medium-term and long-term outlook for gold and silver, and eyes the insiders’ next move with full Basel III compliance just 17 weeks away.

Pretty obvious to most of us, But for some Please Note the bracketed statement !
(The opinions expressed in this video of Andrew Maguire and any guest, do not purport to reflect the official policy or position of Kinesis.)

So no need to panic, its all about the Cartel unwinding positions!

UK economic outlook in four Brexit scenarios
The global outlook and recent trends in the UK economy point to significant headwinds for growth going forwards. Arguably the most important determinant of the UK’s economic trajectory will be the continuing process of leaving the European Union.

Important to remember that at present these newly awarded area's are regarded purely as "Exploration area's", they won't become exploitation area's unless the numbers stack up in an agreed time frame!

If after exploration of the recently awarded area's to the north of Sukari warrant moving onto exploitation then because of the distance from Sukari it would be necessary to build a completely independent mining operation, this blows some of the theories on chat forums out of the water!

Thank you for your thought Mike but I certainly wont be bullied into silence, my comments are both relevant to the POG and our future.
Goldgnomes post on the LBMA gaining an exemption was another reason for Brexit, it was seen as a way of gaining an exclusive, almost offshore status for the City in order to attract clearing banks and trading rooms from the EU!
Unfortunately for the greedy stinkers the plan backfired, fantastic!
You can't really expect most of the grass roots Brexiteers to understand this they are far to concerned with foreign labour pinching the fruit picking jobs , although again this has backfired because our people don't want that work any way!
Why should it be necessary wait a decade to see the effects of Brexit, they are already plain to see and getting worse by the day, as an EU member the UK had better trade deals than any any the UK bunch of Boris clowns have renegotiated since Brexit, the Norwegian minister pointed this out, President Biden has already given tariff free conditions too certain EU exports , but he doesn't regard the UK as an important trading partner !
Biden regards Germany and a stable EU relationship as far more important than the now a somewhat irrelevant UK .
Forget the euro and the dollar collapsing, that is just wishful thinking on the part of some!
Why should the UK have to wait a decade to see if Brexti is of benefit and to whom, some of us may be dead long before that anyway!
Pre Brexit the UK we already had access to a fantastic market on our doorstep and its citizens the freedom to travel stay or live in Europe for as long they chose.
Far too much too much bulling has been practiced by the Brexiteers who behave in an aggressive manner towards anyone who should question the reasoning for taking the UK back 50 years,
The idea that the European Parliament dictated to the the UK is absolute rubbish, on the contrary check and see just how often the UK vetoed proposals and the EU legislation the UK chose to accept was on in most cases made more complicated than it need be in the implementation.
I have yet to see any credible or truthful evidence which demonstrates that Brexit offers any benefits of any kind to the people of the UK
The facts are quite straight forward the public were lied to over the implications of Brexit (admitted by Domenic Cummings, for which he deserves some credit).
I make apologies for my view and if it offend some the that's their problem,.
Greed , selfishness, laziness, intolerance and a reluctance to do any work or contribute in any way to help others typifies the average Brextteer, just like those that pop up on here that have nothing to contribute themselves but expect to other that do all the research and to provide the information for free!
So lets see how much info on Centamin they come up with now, it wont be miuch and what thy do come up with will be based on unreliable rumor!
Tee hee!

So I wonder why do you come on here for Mark, to try and get some info without putting in any work yourself, certainly not to contribute anything about Centamin!
The simple fact is that the UKIP and the Brexit campaign told lies (Dominic Cummings has admitted this £235million saved a week by leaving )which appealed to and brought out the very worst in those who appeared to be normally quite reasonable people.

Now ask yourself why were so many so easily misled?
the thing is people like me will keep reminding Brexiteers of their mistake until they have the decency to admit it themselves!

I have yet to see any credible evidence of any improvements as a result of Brexit.
Where are the savings we were promised?
Travel to th EU is more expensive and inconvenient , roaming phone charges are back1
UK holidays are more expensive, yet the service and quality in generally not as good in comparison to that on the continent
Crops rot on UK farms because the UK workforce don't want the work.
Supply chains to businesses are in a shambolic state.
Loss of EU markets for our UK businesses putting 500,000 people out of work.
Imports to UK form 9000 miles away instead of 200 miles away create greater carbon footprint
Wales has lost EU Funding of 250 million euro and been given £100 million by the government. that an improvement is it?
I could go on but the list is endless, bur where is the advantage to the UK , it certainly isn't apparent this far?

Sotolo,
The turn around is progressing to plan at Centamin,as we know this was always going to be the hardest year, look forward to seeing some evidence in 2022 that the turnaround really is taking place as things progress to more sustainable and predicated guidance levels in 2023.

Mr Zambian, The Brexiteers seem to think they can carry on bullying people to accept a decision by the government with vested personal interests that was based on lies and innuendo as will become apparent as time goes on unfortunately everyone and future generations now have to suffer the consequences and inconvenience for no good reason.
Where is the credible evidence to support the allegations of EU corruption?

UK food supplies set to worsen as more Brexit red tape is introduced within weeks, businesses warn
Ben Chapman
Sat, 4 September 2021, 4:10 pm
The UK's food supply problems are at risk of getting worse because of additional Brexit red tape which will come into force in a matter of weeks, businesses have warned.
From 1 October the UK will begin carrying out checks on paperwork which must be completed for imports of meat, dairy, and some other types of food from the EU.
On 1 January, physical checks will begin on shipments of the same products. Goods which are not compliant are at risk of being turned away.
Until now, while EU countries have rigorously enforced veterinary and food safety checks on shipments coming from the Great Britain, the government has waived the requirement for goods going the other way.

‘Red Wall‘ and other poorer areas of England will lose up to £1bn of development cash this year because of Brexit, despite Boris Johnson’s vow to “level up” the country.
The government promised to match the grants – to build local economies by attracting businesses and jobs – when the UK left the EU, but has yet to set up a promised replacement fund.
Instead, just £220m is being made available across the whole of the UK for 2021-22, and no money has yet been handed out at all – even though the financial year is nearly halfway over.
Areas of the North and Midlands, many of which switched to the Tories at the 2019 election after the prime minister’s “leveling up” pledge, received £500m a year from EU Structural Funds, new analysis shows.https://www.independent.co.uk/news/uk/politics/brexit-red-wall-levelling-up-b1901999.html

Absolutely , but I sold Lloyd's years ago because it is a dead dog of a share and bought Centamin instead.
Lot's of upside to Centamin , no hope for UK banking I'm afraid!

Ex pat are entitled to vote in UK general elections , however they didn't get a vote in the Brexit despite holding UK passports , so it can hardly be regarded as a democratic or even binding result .
Brexit campaign group Vote Leave has been fined £61,000 and referred to the police after an Electoral Commission probe said it broke electoral law.
The watchdog said it exceeded its £7m spending limit by funneling £675,315 through pro-Brexit youth group BeLeave.
The founder of BeLeave, Darren Grimes, has been fined £20,000 and referred to the police, along with Vote Leave official David Halsall.
Vote Leave said the "wholly inaccurate" report was politically motivated.

Absolutely agree Mr Gnome,totally corrupt City running the UK financial markets, unfortunately under the present government there is only hope for the rich and the selfish and the ordinary people can pick up the tab!

Because Tonsril , the people were lied to about the true implications and the costs unfortunately the Bexiteers don't want to admit it, either because they are on a nice little earner out of it or because hey don't like to admit they were misled.
As to a democratic vote it was originally launched by David Cameron as a referendum to gauge public feeling on the subject, but never intended to be a binding vote on leave or stay , that was supposed to come at a later stage based on the outcome of the initial referendum.
By the way you may not be aware but we don't have a democratic voting system in the UK

Tonsril If you take the time to do some research you will find that the present government has used Brexit as a way to deny you democratic freedom and is intending on taking away more of peoples democratic rights.
Just because some people were so inward thinking,selfish or even stupid to go along with Breict is all the more reason to speak up!

yes sorry Bigsmoke, re read your post, still we were saying the same thing ,but in a different way, I hope WQ get their bums burned on this!
What an odious organisation WQ are ,its time that shorting was outlawed it only benefits the market,but it undermines the true value of companies and long term investment and creates instability for no good reason,
So many of the general or investing public fail to realise, or can comprehend how some trading companies can make money out of a share price going down, the idea is completely alien to them, possibly one of the reasons the shorting carries on unchallenged?
