New research has found that an estimated 45 million Britons will be forced into fuel poverty and struggle to pay energy bills this winter. Two-thirds of all UK households – or 18 million families – will be plunged into financial precariousness by January due to soaring inflation – which is already at 40-year record high.
According to the study on fuel poverty by the University of York, the region hardest hit will be Northern Ireland with 76.3% of families battling to make ends meet, followed by Scotland at 72.8%, then the West Midlands (70.9%) and Yorkshire and the Humber (70.6%). The research published by The Guardian newspaper further stated that 86.4% of pensioner couples will fall into fuel poverty.

The Labour MP wrote on Twitter: “These shocking figures show the full scale of the national emergency that could unfold unless the Conservative government acts to freeze energy bills. We simply cannot allow the British people to suffer in this way. We need an energy price freeze.”
