FUEL poverty campaigners revealed yesterday 10 significant failures in the government plans to address the escalating energy costs this winter.

In a letter to Chancellor Rishi Sunak and other cabinet ministers, the End Fuel Poverty Coalition has called for a meeting to discuss operational problems with the latest government measure.

Among the concerns highlighted by the group of more than 60 charities, trade unions, social enterprises, local government representatives and other campaigners is the failure of proposals to help those in fuel poverty in the long term.
