Rishi Sunak is set to splash out up to £13,000 a year to heat his new swimming pool – six-and-a-half times the average energy bill for a family home.
The Chancellor has been building a pool, gym and tennis courts at his £1.5million country manor in his North Yorkshire constituency.
And the huge rise in the energy price cap for consumers this month increased the cost of heating Mr Sunak’s pool by up to £3,500 a year.
