Martin Lewis issues warning to everyone: 'I genuinely don't want to be the person saying this'

Martin Lewis has issued a warning to everyone about a further price cap rise at the start of next year, saying: "I genuinely don't want to be the person saying this".

Millions of people across the UK are facing a major increase in energy prices as Government regulator Ofgem has confirmed an 80.06% rise in the energy price cap, sending the average household's yearly bill up from £1,971 to £3,549 from October.

The cap will come into effect for around 24 million households in England, Scotland and Wales on default energy tariffs on October 1, and will remain in place until December 31, when it will be adjusted again.
