Guardian News published this video item, entitled “Windfall tax on energy companies ‘right compromise’ to keep prices down, says Starmer” – below is their description.
The Labour leader has outlined his party’s plan to address the country’s energy crisis. Keir Starmer said Labour would fund an energy price cap with a windfall tax that could prevent significant increases in energy costs for households later this year and reduce inflation. ‘Our plan not only keeps prices down this winter, but it also takes inflation down by 4%,’ Starmer said. He also called for a ‘sprint on renewables’, to prevent dependence on international energy markets and ruled out any attempt to nationalise energy companies
