Martin Lewis gives his verdict on mini-budget shake-up
Martin Lewis, the UK’s resident MoneySavingExpert, took to Twitter to share his thoughts on Jeremy Hunt’s changes.
Writing on Twitter, Mr Lewis said: “Hunt says energy price guarantee to remain until April.
“After that treasury review on how to support energy prices.
“Plus all mini-Budget tax measures (barring stamp duty and NI cut) now not happening, so no cut in basic rate.
“Trussenomics totally hunted down and gone.”
He added: “While energy intervention was desperately needed – a universal energy price guarantee was always expensive and poorly targeted.
“The post-April support will still need reach a decent way up the net and support middle earners, energy rates are still huge.”
