Liverpool people sick of being 'held to ransom' over energy prices plan fightback

A man has said how his family wear extra layers at homes in a bid to stay warm as energy bills continue to rise.

David Read, from L8, is just one of the many who will be protesting this weekend in the city as part of a Warm-Up protest - a demonstration urging the government to take action over “sky-high” fuel prices and “forced” instalments of prepayment meters in the UK.
