The leader of the Liberal Democrats has called on the Government to cancel the energy price cap increase and absorb the £36billion cost of the increase as living costs are set to spiral out of control.
Ed Davey is the latest political figure to urge the outgoing Prime Minister to attempt to tackle the cost of living crisis before he leaves No10 next month.
He accused the Tory leadership hopefuls of "living in a parallel universe" as they have "no idea" how to help families through what could be the toughest winter in decades.
