News from the 24 hours to Monday morning, 2 November 2026.
Tone of the day
What the score means. Each score rates how good or bad the news was for the company, from −10 (clearly bad) to +10 (clearly good). 0 is neutral, and anything beyond ±6 is strong and rare. It rates the coverage, not the share price.
Why it scored this way
Coverage of British Gas was mostly about helping households, with support schemes and a charity welcoming Budget measures. A boiler warning tied to weather gave a slightly negative note, keeping the lean modestly positive.
What drove it
- customer support schemes
- British Gas Energy Trust
- boiler warning
