Completely agree, very logical, which is why it will never happen. It's far too practical for the party going millenials at 10 Downing Street to legislate.

The bloke is an energy company boss. I imagine he wants to stave off a raft of bad debts that he'll have no chance of recovering.

If you are part of a flock don't expect the big bad wolf to be worrying over your welfare.
