Richard Burgon – 2023 Comments on the Spring Budget Speech

The comments made by Richard Burgon, the Labour MP for Leeds East, on Twitter on 15 March 2023.

A year ago households had an energy bill price cap of £1,300.

The Government is today bragging that it’s fixing the cap at £2,500 – nearly double what people paid a year ago.

Once again the profits of greedy energy companies are being put before the needs of people. #Budget2023
