Episode Details

The Resolution Foundation is urging Prime Minister Andy Burnham to expand cost-of-living aid to households earning under £30,000 annually, arguing that targeting either total household income or the highest earner’s income yields similar results—reaching roughly 40% of all homes, with 75% from the bottom four income groups. While the government has already offered relief through a VAT cut on electricity bills, soaring global gas prices and a looming Ofgem price cap jump threaten to push more families into crisis. The think tank calls for a smarter, scalable system to shield vulnerable households before energy costs spiral again.
