Swingeing green stealth levies on energy bills are ‘perverse’ and should be scrapped, MPs warn today.

A major report says the taxes are hitting poorer families hardest.

MPs also call for middle-class pensioners to lose their winter fuel allowance, with the savings redirected to help low-income households insulate their homes.

And they attack the regulator Ofgem for failing to hold energy firms to account for soaring prices.
