Rishi Sunak today announced another £15bn for Brits as the nation plunges into its worst cost-of-living crisis since rationing.
The Tory Chancellor reluctantly opened his purse strings several weeks earlier than planned after warnings energy bills would hit £2,800 in October - and after Boris Johnson needed a Partygate distraction.
He unveiled £650 in two lots for people on benefits, and £400 for all households off energy bills, from July and October respectively. The hated "buy now pay later" £200 discount off energy bills in October has been scrapped after an outcry.
