Consumer champion Martin Lewis warns "lives will be lost this winter" due to high energy bill prices.
The MoneySavingExpert founder told BBC Radio 4's Today programme that the 80% increase in the price of energy is a “genuine social and financial catastrophe that is putting lives at risk”, adding: “I’ve been accused of catastrophising over this situation.
“Well, the reason I have catastrophised is this is a catastrophe, plain and simple. If we do not get further Government intervention on top of what was announced in May, lives will be lost this winter.”
