Nicola Sturgeon has demanded Boris Johnson moves cost of living crisis talks from September to this week as Brits "can't afford to wait".
The First Minister of Scotland told the PM the situation is "fast deteriorating", after the Bank of England's gloomy projections that could see inflation skyrocket to 13% or above in October.
In a letter sent to Mr Johnson on his first day back from holiday, Ms Sturgeon stressed that “targeted” support was necessary for the most vulnerable, while hitting out at tax cuts proposed by those vying to succeed Boris Johnson in No 10.
