Martin Lewis hit out at critics who have branded him a "sell out" after he praised the Government's package to help people with the cost of living crisis.
People in the UK are set to receive a £400 discount to go towards their energy bills after Rishi Sunak made a U-turn on his plans to force people to pay back help. The Chancellor announced the grant would double from £200 to £400 for all households - and would no longer be repayable - as part of a package to help as the cost of living crisis deepens, reports the Mirror.
Following the announcement on Thursday (May 26), consumer affairs expert Martin Lewis tweeted that the Government's plan was a "good move", prompting a wave of criticism. "I've nowt to sell out, I just try and call it straight."
