Kwasi Kwarteng, the UK energy and business secretary, promised MPs in Parliament on Monday afternoon that there is “no question of the lights going out” this winter as ministers struggle to contain a growing crisis sparked by spiralling gas prices.
He told the House of Commons it was “alarmist” to suggest people would struggle to heat their homes in the colder months and said Britain had “sufficient capacity” to meet household demand.
In the meantime supermarkets could face food shortages of meat and other fresh food by the end of within weeks after soaring gas prices prompted a major US fertiliser manufacturer to suspend production, turning off most of Britain’s supply of carbon dioxide to the food and drink industry in the process.
