Liz Truss energy statement

[shakeitoffshakeacocktail]

Capped at £2500????

How is that sensible? So if you live in a very large house (wealthy) you will benefit more than people who previously had small energy bills (poorer)

Example, last year my energy bill has and electric was £800 I am a single parent 1 child already frugal. If my bills go to 2500 that would be 1/5th of my yearly wage £12500

But my mums bills last year were £1800 so going to £2500 would be manageable/ a relief to her!

Is there more help on the way do we think?

They can’t, because it is slightly different for each region. So it will always need to be an average.

I think they've been very careful to spell it out today, every time I've heard it mentioned. Christ knows how people still don't get it!

Not the unit prices, but what the 'cap' means.

The media have a lot to answer for
