    I was a bit confused by the use of “theft”, for anyone else wondering they mean it in the opposite way most people think, where it’s not the companies that are investing big ££££ into robbing us blind every minute, but actually normal people who are using electricity without gasp forking over the tribute willingly.

    How does electricity even work over there. I saw that season of industry and it sounds weird as fuck.
