Martin Lewis gives honest verdict on government's energy and cost of living help

Martin Lewis has given his honest thoughts on the government's latest cost of living crisis help.

Recently, Prime Minister Liz Truss announced a Price Cap Guarantee for energy bills, meaning the average household bills won't be anymore than £2,500. The government has also promised a £400 winter electricity discount for all households, which will be automatically paid as £66 or £67 per month from October until March.

There will also be other help available for those on low incomes or with a disability. Pensioners will receive a payment of £300 and anyone claiming a disability benefit, such as PIP, will get £150.
