CAMPAIGNERS slammed Shell for trading on the misery of millions trapped in fuel poverty today, as the oil giant announced billions in profits.

Although its earnings dropped from £22.8 billion in 2023, Shell still brought in £19.1bn last year.

The company attributed the drop to write-offs in oil exploration and lower oil prices.
