The boss of energy firm SSE has told ITV News he "agrees" with Labour leader Ed Miliband over freezing energy prices. He admitted the firm, which has pledged not to raise domestic bills until 2016, has lost several hundred thousands of customers.
The boss of the energy firm SSE has told ITV News that Ed Miliband "certainly changed the way people look at the energy market" after the Labour leader vowed to freeze energy prices if he won the election:
Last September SSE came out against Labour's plans for an energy price freeze, but today the CEO seemed to forget these previous views.
SSE's decision to freeze energy bills is about protecting its shareholders as well as dealing with customers' concerns about rising prices.
