Starmer announces £53m support to help with heating oil costs

The UK government targets 1.5 million homes reliant on heating oil with £53 million to offset doubled prices amid Middle East supply disruptions, Starmer warns against profiteering.

  • Vulnerable households using heating oil will get immediate support of £53m in funding from the government.
  • The price of crude oil remained above $100 per barrel after jumping from $71 a barrel before the Iran conflict began.
  • The prime minister said if heating oil companies are breaking the law, there will be legal action, and promised to better regulate the market.
