Labour’s £1k boost for homes
EXCLUSIVE
KEIR Starmer is today pledging to insulate Britain from the cost of living crisis.
The Labour leader said Labour’s £60billion Warm Homes Plan would save 19 million families more than £1,000 off their energy bills. He pledged to bring energy prices down – paid for by taxing oil and gas producers making huge profits. And he said a Labour government would “help people directly”, with proposals to follow in the coming days.
Labour said had the Government used this scheme when the party originally called for it, two million of the coldest homes could be upgraded by this winter – saving households over £2bn on their energy bills this year alone.
He said: “Britain deserves a government that will take this crisis seriously. The Tories are too busy fighting each other to notice. Labour has a plan that meets the scale of this crisis.”
