Bosses at BP will likely be nervously eyeing the headlines that fellow energy giants Shell and Centrica generated this week as they prepare to present their own set of bumper profits.

The oil giant is expected to have made far more than twice of what it pocketed in profit a year ago.

It comes as bosses at Centrica and Shell were branded “money-grabbing” on one front page on Friday. “Profits in misery,” another said.

The businesses both combed in big profit increases as they benefited from higher prices for oil and gas around the world.

£1.34bn in profit.

Put another way, over last 6 months, every customer has paid £190 to fund profits and dividends.

It's not militant trade unions that are the problem. It's militant capitalism. https://t.co/SfCAM2FgaV

With this in mind, Monroe appeared on Good Morning Britain and addressed these obscene profits.
