PM Vows To Roll Back Green Taxes On Energy

Written By Unknown on Rabu, 23 Oktober 2013 | 18.56

David Cameron has promised to "roll back" the green taxes that have been blamed for pushing up energy bills after another bitter row with Ed Miliband.

The Prime Minister signalled he wanted to "get to grip" with green regulations, which energy firms have claimed played a large part in their decision to hike prices.

Mr Cameron also told MPs the Government was to launch an annual audit of competition in the energy industry to see if the market could be improved.

The announcements came as he was put under pressure on energy policy during angry clashes with the Labour leader at Prime Minister's Questions.

Mr Miliband mocked Mr Cameron after former Tory prime minister Sir John Major's comments calling for a windfall tax on energy firms on Tuesday.

But the Prime Minister hit back, calling Sir John a "good man" and Mr Miliband a "conman" as he branded Labour's price freeze promise a "cynical ploy".

After coming off worse in the bout with the Labour leader, Mr Cameron was also reprimanded by Commons Speaker John Bercow for repeating "conman" later in the session.

Mr Bercow said he had let it slide once but told the Prime Minister: "It's a bit below the level."
