Don’t Pay UK shares footage of protestors storming Scottish Power building in stance against energy prices

As well as urging people to sign up to their campaign, Don't Pay shared support for the Scottish Resistance protestors who took to Scottish Power headquarters in Glasgow last week to take a stance against the news.

In the clip posted on Twitter, the activists enter the building with signs that read 'shocking energy bills rises, tax them at 50% now, they must be stopped' and 'Tories are lower than vermin'.

After demanding to meet with the company's chief executive, one of the group's members says: "Stop high energy prices. Taxes for the elite at 50%.

"People are going to die this winter. Electricity and gas prices are rising up to 150%. £4200 in January. It's an absolute daylight robbery.

"What we are saying is, to the government, lower the prices. Social tariffs for the poor and a standard tariff for everybody else."

Although the organisation had nothing to do with the protest, Don't Pay showed support by retweeting the clip, writing: "Protest at Scottish Power earlier, more of this is needed."

"We have the lowest pension in Europe, yet we've got the highest energy bills and they're set to increase again in October and in January. It's shocking. 

"Some of our pensioners are not going to be able to afford these bills, they're going to have to choose between eating and heating their house and I think it's an absolute disgrace. 

"The time has come to step up. We've got to do what we can to help the pensioners and the vulnerable.

"This is the first of many protests. This is going to be an ongoing protest until we bring it to the attention of people that they've got to stand up for their rights."
