Have energy prices fallen? No – but average usage has
The eagle-eyed among you may have noticed a small drop in the prices we give for energy tariffs on MSE and in our weekly email.

To fly but NOT to serve. Is British Airways’ new M&S paid-for food service always this shambolic?
I want to like the UK institution that is British Airways but I fear its service is hitting turbulence, begging the question whether it’s worth paying its often higher prices over rivals such as Easyjet.
