Oil giant Shell has added almost 10 billion dollars in extra profit while households struggle to pay bills.
Shell's adjusted earnings more than doubled to 9.5 billion dollars (£8.2 billion) in the three months to the end of September when compared with the previous years.
Profits are down compared to Shell's second quarter earlier in 2022, when it made 11.5 billion dollars (£9.9 billion), as the price of oil slowly began to fall after months of multi-year highs due to the war in Ukraine.
