Truss will pay under £2,000 for Downing Street winter energy bills, Labour says

State subsidies for No 10 and No 11 mean she will be insulated from soaring energy costs for households

Liz Truss will pay no more than 2,000 in total for all her energy bills in Downing Street this winter because of state subsidies, Labour has calculated.

If Truss, as widely expected, is elected as Conservative leader and prime minister on Monday, she is expected to move into the four-bedroom flat above 11 Downing Street, the larger of the two official residences.
