Liz Truss could cancel a £400 energy bills discount for richer Brits, a key ally revealed today.
All electricity bill payers in Britain are due to get £400 off this winter, spread over six months between October and March, as the price cap doubles to about £4,000 a year.
But Ms Truss has attacked “handouts” set up by her rival Rishi Sunak - who’s confessed he’ll give his own £400 to charity - as “Gordon Brown economics”.
