Boris Johnson has been urged to host a ‘cost of living summit’ in Number 10 to “thrash out” solutions to the looming crunch on household budgets.
Lib Dem leader Ed Davey accused the Prime Minister of being “missing in action” - and too busy trying to save his own skin than to help struggling families.
He said: "It is utterly shameful that Boris Johnson held law-breaking parties in Downing Street, but won’t haul in the bosses of energy firms to help struggling families with their bills.”
