Energy Bill will legalise ‘force' to enter homes
Age of tyranny

AN Englishman's home used to be his castle, but companies could soon have the legal right to use 'reasonable force' to enter your property and force-fit a smart meter.

MPs have already voted early September to send the 'Energy Bill' to give its short title - on to the House of Lords for final consideration of amendments.

Only 18 voted against it, despite a Tory backbench rebellion. describing it as 'a recipe for energy disaster'.

'Using reasonable force' is the kind of vague, slippery language that could result in mobs of police, sometimes armed, forcing their way into people's homes.

And all because they do not want a device that will not only spy on them, but will also restrict their energy use.

In the Bill, an 'energy smart appliance' means 'an appliance that is capable of adjusting the immediate or future flow of electricity into or out of itself'.
