VIDEO: Harlow motorists are facing Fuel Poverty
Last week, I asked Energy Ministers in the Government if they would look at the rising cost of petrol and diesel, as we are now seeing RECORD PRICES at the pumps.
RAC figures show that families on low- and average-earnings in Harlow are now spending a tenth of their income just to fill up the family car. In essence, they are facing fuel-poverty.
The Minister hinted that the Government was looking whether anything could be done in the Budget, in a few days time. Watch the video above for the full details.
