Nadhim Zahawi today advised Britons to start cutting their energy usage because 'there's a war on' - after Ofgem confirmed an 80 per cent rise in the price cap which will send the average household's yearly bill rocketing from Ј1,971 to Ј3,549. 
The move will affect 24million Britons from October 1, kombi servisi while the 4.5million on pre-payment meters - who are often the most vulnerable and already in fuel poverty - could see even higher average bills of Ј3,608. 
Asked by broadcasters if it was time for people to look at their energy use, the Chancellor said: 'The reality is that we should all look at our energy consumption. It is a difficult time.

There is war on our continent.
'Very few people anticipated war. Wars happen in far-flung places. It is now here with us. If you loved this short article and you want to receive more information relating to kombi servisi generously visit the web site. We have to remain resilient. My responsibility is to deliver that help.'
As business groups and kombi Servisi think tanks offered stark warnings over the crisis throughout the course of today: 


Campaigners said the number of UK households in fuel poverty will have doubled in a year by this October; 

Prime Minister Boris Johnson insisted 'extra cash' will be announced next month to support households; and

Sir Keir Starmer said it is 'absolutely unforgivable' that the Government is 'missing in action' amid the crisis.










Mr Zahawi acknowledged the increase in the price cap would cause 'stress and kombi Servisi anxiety' for kombi servisi people, but that the Government was working 'flat out' to develop more options to support households.
