The Lib Dem directly elected Mayor of Watford stars in this video about warm spaces in his borough:
Nobody should be cold this winter.
That’s why we’ve opened warm, welcoming spaces across Watford where people can meet and save on their energy bills.
Our welcoming spaces are open to – no matter what your situation.

Warm Spaces is not the answer. As flu and colds spread, people that have immunity and have disabilities wont find that a good idea.
The real problem is the windfall tax needs to be applied.
Sorry, Helen, but I disagree.
During the height of Covid ‘isolation’ was a major concern; huddling alone in a cold room will be even worse.
Wishing for the government to act won’t reduce energy bills.
Good point Helen. One suggestion – we need to call it a Windfall Levy on all organisations that have benefited from the massive increase in prices to differentiate it from a Windfall Tax which to most people is interpreted as a tax on profits. Many energy companies make no UK profits, but if they have benefited from UK customers having to pay these high prices, they should pay here, irrespective of whatever Tax structures they have put in place.
