        @SigniusNetworks Hi, we don't set our own wholesale prices. Centrica sells to British Gas at the same prices it sells to everyone else. Thx.

        @BBCBreaking you need to explain diff between absolute profit and margin. It's not inconsistent Ofgem say margin up and Centrica ab falls.

        @BBCBreaking they say profits fall like that's a loss. It's still profits of gazillions.

        @BBCBreaking profits down 26% and bills only down 4% means they're making more profit per unit sale. A bad winter and they'll be quids in
