Show Notes
In a heated exchange at Prime Ministers Questions, Conservative leader Kemi Badenoch accused Prime Minister Keir Starmer of prioritizing welfare recipients over addressing rising energy costs. Badenoch urged Starmer to cut green levies, halt fuel duty increases, and approve new gas drilling licenses. Starmer blamed global oil and gas costs for price spikes, dismissing Badenochs record. Chancellor Rachel Reeves noted work on targeted household aid, while Ed Davey called out Conservative hypocrisy. Iain Duncan Smith pushed for a ban on Irans Revolutionary Guard Corps, but Starmer highlighted existing sanctions. As global tensions persist, the government considers energy security moves and price relief options to protect households.
