~00:07:02 Price cap. Introduced during May government. Wholesale prices have gone up and cap then removed.
Citizen's advice seeing more calls from those struggling with energy in June/July than usually see in winter. Disproporrianetely affecting low income and disabled people.
Citizens advice practically advising to not pay. People running out of options.
