Protesters to descend on Ofgem Glasgow offices after huge energy bill price hike

Protesters are set to descend on Glasgow city centre after it was revealed energy bills are set to soar even higher later this year.

The rally has been set up by the Glaswegian pressure group Power to the People who are calling for a freeze on energy prices. The protest will take place outside Ofgem's Albion Street office in Commonwealth House at 4pm on Friday.

Earlier today Ofgem confirmed the price cap would increase from £1,971-a-year to £3,549 on October 1, meaning average household annual bills could rise by 80 per cent. The move has been met with widespread anger, with politicians and campaigners hitting out.
