Things are going to get much worse. We're fortunate enough that we can stomach the extra costs, but some people are going to be living like folks did in the 50s. Rationing their food, washing with cold water, or having showers or baths every 2-3 days instead. Refusing to put the heating on in the winter or simply not having the funds to top up those archaic meters.
Successive governments and the EU have royally screwed us over with their reliance on Russian oil and backward tracking on nuclear energy.
