SNP MP David Linden called for North Sea oil revenues to fund a £400 energy bill rebate.
The SNP has called for action from the UK Government as new data reveals the three parliamentary constituencies facing the highest average increase in energy bills compared with last year are in Scotland.
The highest drop in Scotland will be seen in the East Dunbartonshire seat – which is widely considered one of the wealthiest north of the border – where predictions suggest bills could fall by an average of £104. The benefit sees £25 per child per week given to the worst-off families in the country and has been hailed by poverty campaigners.“Scotland is an energy rich country with natural resources in abundance. It is, therefore, ridiculous that families across these isles remain fuel poor, with the top three constituencies seeing the highest energy bill increases in Scotland.
In their report, the charities showed the three highest increases across the country will be seen in the south west , Wales and Scotland .
