As warnings say energy bills could rise to almost £4000, the Tories are accused of focusing on 'internal squabbles'
Details of the UK Government’s energy bills support scheme have also emerged, with a £400 grant to be paid in six monthly instalments of £66 and £67, applied to bills from October.
Last week, consumer champion Martin Lewis said the Boris Johnson’s “zombie government” is failing to address the crisis and warned decisions on support cannot be delayed until the Prime Minister’s successor is in office.said both candidates were prioritising “internal Tory squabbles” over helping vulnerable households.
“Whilst any financial support for energy bills is welcome, 60-odd pounds a month for six months will barely scrape the sides for those on low-incomes who could face a monthly energy bill of half a grand next year.
He added: “The problem is we have this zombie government at the moment that can’t make any big decisions.“People will be panicking, it will be desperate.
