Dozens of Saturday shoppers in Glossop expressed their shock at the enormous profits announced by Shell last week, at a time when many people are living in cold homes as they can't cope with rising energy bills.

Campaigners are also calling for more help for people struggling with their bills; a home insulation programme; more investment in renewable energy and no new oil and gas.
