Martin Lewis has shared the exact date the government need to act as the UK faces a "national crisis".
The consumer champion appeared on today's edition of Good Morning Britain after shock forecasts from analysts Cornwall Insight predicted bills will rise even higher this winter than had been previously thought. Bills are now expected to reach approximately £3,582 per year for the average household from October - up from the £3,359 predicted earlier this month.
From January, that amount is expected to rise to £4,266 before rising again in April to £4,427 - the previous forecast was for £3,729 in April. Cornwall Insight said these changes were due to "a change in calculation methodology" by energy regulator Ofgem.
