Rishi Sunak has been urged to take £1,000 off the bills of the poorest consumers in the country by the head of one of the biggest power companies.
Scottish Power chief executive Keith Anderson called on the chancellor to reduce rocketing bills this winter and to get rid of pre-payment meters as people face poverty over power bills.
Anderson told MPs on the Commons Business, Energy and Industrial Strategy Committee that the £1,000 advance could be paid off over ten years or written off by the government.
