    Ofgem reviewing plans to give energy networks the ability to shut down domestic electricity supplies
    A new sort of smart meter would need to be installed in every home in the UK
    Would have the ability to switch off high usage devices such as electric vehicle chargers and central heating systems
    Sources close to discussions told us that government is 'open' to proposing legislation to support these powers

The Government is considering giving energy networks the power to switch off a household's energy supply without warning or compensation for those affected.

A series of 'modifications' to the Smart Energy Code have been proposed by officials and look set to pass into law by next spring.

It's coming.  They are going to tax and regulate our energy and water consumption. 

So the push for electric vehicles --- they can tax the energy that you will use to run those vehicles. 

Gee .... we have people like Gates, Gore, Hollywood elites, etc., who all have huge homes ... so ... you can bet that they won't be regulated and taxed; just the 'common folk'.
I Believe in the United States of America as a Government of the people, by the people, for the people; whose just powers are derived from the consent of the governed; a democracy in a republic; a sovereign nation of many sovereign states; a perfect union one and inseparable; established upon those principles of freedom, equality, justice and humanity for which American patriots sacrificed their lives and fortunes.  I therefore believe it is my duty to my country to love it; to support its Constitution; to obey its laws to respect its flag; and to defend it against all enemies.
