UK Energy Bills Hit Three-Year High This Winter

🐿️ The Squirrel's Take
Time to stockpile acorns and thermal underwear—this winter's energy crunch is going to be a nutty one.
💡 Why it matters
Millions of households will struggle with higher heating costs during the coldest months, intensifying pressure on the government for financial support.

British households face a 4% rise in energy bills from October, pushing the annual price cap to £1,723, the highest in three years. The increase follows months of soaring wholesale market prices and marks the second cap rise in three months.
