    For reference, I was living in Germany during the beginning of the war, and my heating bill went from 150€/month to 450€/month, I had to move out of the apartment I rented because I couldn’t afford to heat it. Now I live in Spain, electricity prices have remained rather stable for the past 10 years thankfully besides some shocks during cold months, and gas is more expensive but not that big a change because we get gas from northern Africa too, not just from the US.

      Oh wow, my electrical bill is about £100 a month and I am currently nice and warm too. I think it dropped from about 27p/kWh to 24 somewhat recently, don’t think it ever went over 30 but the media was shit at reporting on it. Instead of the actual rates they would always report on it based on what they felt was an average usage.
