Makes you wonder why all these pubs and restaurants are complaining. All they have to do is rip out their expensive catering kitchens and replace them with another expensive to run alternative.

But I thought the cost of electric in the UK was only going to roughly double in price where cost of gas is going up 7 times the price

There's no limit to the cost for businesses. Some business have seen massive increases in recent quotes for electricity.

This is shocking and worrying, For those that don't understand and think businesses make bucket loads of cash, here's a little stat.

Less than 15% of businesses in the UK make a profit per annum of 10k or more. These businesses employ people, these people have families. If these businesses go under, their jobs go, their will be less choice, which is worse for the consumer as it will increase the chances of monopolisation.

Only then will the average Joe understand once they realise they've lost their job.
