Today we’re attending the first meeting of the All Party Parliamentary Group on #prepayment meters organised by @AnneMcLaughlin.

We’re keen to work with all involved so low-income consumers don’t pay more for their energy just because they can’t afford to be on direct debit. https://t.co/Ox43HqLA8U
