* being reliant on gas for both heat and power

* a collapsing pound driving prices higher in local currency

* no supply guarantee since we left the EU (we are now "at the end of the pipe")

* some of the most energy inefficient housing in Europe after decades of not investing or taking climate change seriously

* very high taxes, very low spending on poor people and a big deficit (so we have no room to bail out users)

* no domestic storage so we are just constantly exposed to spot prices

And that's just the issue around Russian gas. We also have dozens of other economic chickens coming home to roost...
