Energy Price Guarantee does not go far enough
EMBARGO: IMMEDIATE RELEASE
Responding to news that the Government will be continuing the Energy Price Guarantee for another three months, Liberal Democrat Treasury Spokesperson Sarah Olney MP said:
"This does not go far enough. Instead of a sticking plaster for another three months, we need meaningful action now.
"The Liberal Democrats are calling on the Chancellor to cut energy bills by £500 per household. This would make a significant difference to households and the Government can afford to do it, they are choosing not to.
"In three months time families will once again be facing a cliff edge of unaffordable heating bills."
