00:00We're here today for Unite Community. It's a union that organises for people that are
00:06unemployed and ex-union members in the community. We've got 40 branches out in the country,
00:13up and down the country, saying we want Unite for Energy for All, bring energy into public
00:20ownership. There are 7,000 people that are actually dying from cold. There shouldn't
00:26be a choice between heating and eating. The prices need to be addressed and energy needs
00:34to be taken back into public ownership because we shouldn't have these on a day of the 1st
00:39of April when people are really struggling. They're calling it Awful April. Energy bills
00:45are going up and up and up and wages aren't matching it. We're here to say enough is enough.
00:50We demand change. We want it now. Stop impoverishing the poor. Stop hitting the vulnerable in our
00:57community.
