National World - LocalTV

With the energy price cap rising again this year, we went out into Manchester to ask people on the street if they had any ideas on how to improve the current system.

00:00Hi I'm Theo with Manchester World and welcome to People on the Street. Today I'm out in Manchester

00:03asking people about the energy price cap and that's because it's said to go up again this

00:07year with houses now paying around sort of £1,700 per year on energy. We want to know if

00:13people think this is too much, if they can understand that price increase and what they

00:16think are the best ways that the government could look at saving money to reduce the price for

00:21everyone. We're pretty big advocates in the whole green sustainable life. For those that can elect

00:29to go for greener energy on possibly a higher tariff can do so and satisfy their conscience and

00:35everything but then families who maybe can't afford that and can't budget for it have the

00:40option to go for a cheaper energy price. I think the rich can pay more of course because

00:46they have more things and bigger houses and everything is bigger for them and the less

00:53people have less money don't have so much opportunity to have like a normal life. I'm

00:58speaking because my country is like that.
