They really don't get it do they?energy policy, and a report in the Financial Times this morning saying that the government’s energy security strategy is being further delayed because Sunak is reluctant to sign off on a new spending splurge. In its story the FT reports:
Boris Johnson’s promised energy security strategy has been delayed again, as chancellor Rishi Sunak continues to hold out against big new spending commitments.
Sunak, under fierce pressure to do more to help families through the cost of living crisis, has told colleagues he wants to turn off the spending taps and that every “marginal pound” should go towards tax cuts.
His tough stance has put the brakes on the energy strategy, which was originally due for publication last week and then again at the start of this week.
The energy security strategy was due to be published this week, but the FT says it is not expected until a week today at the earliest. The Treasury has not denied the FT story, with a Treasury source telling PA Media: “Policy is still being decided on.”
