Boris Johnson seeks to calm fears over tough winter

"We are talking to the energy companies - doing what we can to keep prices low, to make sure that the supermarket shelves aren't empty," he said.As one of Europe's biggest users of natural gas, the UK has been hit particularly hard by a squeeze in supplies and a surge in wholesale prices.

The move comes after one food industry group warned that consumers could start noticing gaps on supermarket shelves within days if no action was taken.Households across England, Scotland and Wales are, meanwhile, set to see their energy bills rise by an average of £139 a year in October. The Joseph Rowntree Foundation, an anti-poverty organisation, has warned of a "perfect storm" for consumers this autumn, as problems with global supply chains also increase food prices.

Brexit is a disaster

Good luck with that Johnson . I for one won’t believe a word you say

How's is he going to do that, since he became PM he has just lurched from one disaster to another, the liar doesn't care.

Do YOU believe him given his track record, ? bbclaurak what he says & what he does, what he believes & what happens are generally a million miles apart!

INVESTMENT IN RENEWABLES IS TOO SLOW .

I want to point out that I just came to see the irrelevant comments of people who have nothing to do other than lame comments like me

JohnsonOut

Other than the medical personnel, nobody else is worrying.

Does anyone still care what he says? His words are neither here nor there and have seemingly no bearing on what might or might not actually happen. He just says stuff he thinks people want to hear...

Good

Who believes him 🤪🤪🤪

Well og course he will it’s a tough autumn that’s why

Have the met office come up with the long range winter forecast yet or is it being kept a secret so as not to frighten the peasants😂 The UK is a very dark, cold, depressing place to live these days & getting worse, I genuinely fear for our future🥺

Oh, well that guarantees it will be far worse than feared then.

Feel so much better now 😂

Like, I trust what he says?

Haha. What a conman.

Do people seriously believe any words that drop out of that mouth. Whatever he says - just think the opposite and you won’t be far wrong.

How many disasters have started with headlines reading “Boris Johnson seeks to calm fears over…”

Does he care no .cases rising deaths going up today and we’re is borris . .Winter will be hard on family’s though his bad moves with brexit . Price rises so many will have the worry we’re the next penny coming from .it’s upsetting when the poor get poorer and the rich get richer

Oh sweet Jesus we’re doomed!

If you reverse whatever he says you get nearer to reality .

Well... we've been told by that liar, Brexit will be smooth...also no issues with EU, also no rise taxes and so on,who believes a liar, is a liar too

No offence Boris but living as you do...as you have done...you have no idea of how the ordinary low income, mentally affected member of the community will be affected over the winter. Oh...Merry Christmas. BorisJohnson

He’s lying again isn’t he

Surely the link should read ‘ Boris Johnson FAILS to calm fears over tough winter.’

Wait till the vax varient kicks in!

Where in the shit then! Tell when Boris lies, his lips move
