Boris Johnson has hinted parents could receive further childcare support as he seeks cost-free measures to alleviate the cost of living crisis
Downing Street said the Prime Minister would sign off on new support when he chaired a "domestic and economic strategy committee" in the "coming weeks".
He accepted Brits were facing "real pressures" but blamed external factors such as Russian president Vladimir Putin's "crazed malevolence" in Ukraine and lockdowns in China. Mr Sunak "underlined the importance of not feeding in to further inflation rises and emphasised that the UK is currently spending £80 billion servicing our debt", No 10 said.
It was understood the Government was looking at measures that could be introduced quickly rather than those requiring new legislation. It comes after reports suggested plans to cut the cost of food that is not made in Britain, clothes and electronic goods had been mooted around Whitehall.Mr Johnson said earlier: "With household bills and living costs rising in the face of global challenges, easing the burden on the British people and growing our economy must be a team effort across Cabinet.
