VAT Cut Won't Save Your Energy Bills | Sheffield News

from Sheffield News Today | 2 Min News | The Daily News Now!

Prime Minister Andy Burnham’s new VAT cut on energy bills, kicking in October, promises £45 savings for households—but experts warn it may be wiped out by a looming energy price cap hike. Financial analyst Martin Lewis says the move is well-intentioned but unlikely to deliver real relief, as the cost increase could nearly match the VAT reduction, leaving most families’ bills largely unchanged. It’s a symbolic step, not a game-changer, in the ongoing cost of living crisis. Listen in comfort:Get a discount on a Soli Pillow: http://solipillow.com/discount/dnn.
