Whilst standing charges are higher in Scotland, unit rates are lower. The two things cancel each other out. Total bills in Scotland and London are very similar based on typical usage.

Original Tweet

Tweet embedding is no longer reliably available, due to the platform's instability (in terms of both technology and policy). If the Tweet still exists, you can view it here: https://twitter.com/foo_bar/status/1727310970006241731

Please note, though, that you may need to have your own Twitter account to access that page. I am currently exploring options for archiving Tweet data in a post-API context.
