Boris Johnson predicts tough times for UK population
29.08.2022 13:00
Outgoing British Prime Minister Boris Johnson has said the coming months will be difficult for the UK, reported from his article for the Daily Mail.
"The months ahead are going to be tough, perhaps very tough. Our energy bills are going to be eye-watering. For many of us, the cost of heating our homes is already frightening.
And yet I have never been more certain that we will come through this well – and that Britain will emerge stronger and more prosperous the other side," he wrote.
Johnson, who will resign on September 6, concludes: ‘We have more than enough resilience to get through the tough months ahead.
‘We have shown that before. And we have made the long-term decisions – including on domestic energy supply – to ensure our bounceback can, and should, be remarkable, and that our future will be golden.’
His vow comes as his likely successor, Foreign Secretary Liz Truss, is drawing up a multi-billion-pound package of targeted support for households, which she is planning to announce in an emergency Budget next month.
It will come in addition to support already put forward by the Government, including £650 for the eight million most vulnerable households.
