Claire Coutinho

Conservative — East Surrey

Speaking in the House of Commons on 24 June 2026

Debate

Climate Change

Contribution

I note that the hon. Gentleman did not answer my question, because he does not have an answer. Let me answer his question: on an electricity bill, 25% of the cost is a wholesale cost, and 75% is a non-commodity cost. Bills have gone up so much partly because of the taxes, levies and policies that his Government have chosen.
