Urgent action needed as energy bills set to rise again leaving Scots struggling
2025-04-23 08:45:03| Spiritual Career Counseling
Its not surprising that almost half of Scots are worried about not being able to afford to pay their energy bills next year. Rents, mortgages and food prices have all gone up, with wages not increasing at the same rate. But one of the biggest burdens facing households has been soaring bills for gas and electricity. The Russian invasion of Ukraine caused the price of gas to skyrocket and bills have stayed high ever since. Over the winter the increases have forced too many families in Scotland to choose between heating and eating. And now households will be caused further anxiety by the energy price cap rising again tomorrow. The average increase will be 111 per year, with the new cap a whopping 62 per cent higher than it was in the autumn of 2021. Since coming to power last July, Labour has committed to getting bills down by 2030. But for many families that is not a quick enough turnaround.
