  • Probably, although I'm not sure the highest incomes etc correlate that well with largest houses. At the very top maybe yes, but if the cut off is £100k per year or even £150k then that will capture a lot of smallish London houses for families, say.

    Do they use loads more on heating than old folk in houses they bought 30, 40 years ago? Not sure they do

  • I was perhaps looking at the more extremes in energy consumption. Those renting affordable accommodation, trying to make ends meet vs high net worth. I appreciate there are always exceptions to the rule. This in part is why I prefer the grant as a blanket approach. Will now probably hit middle earners hard. All a bit shit really.

  • Surely a tiering system on the unit cost would make most sense?

    The more you use, the less you benefit though everyone gets the basic help
