Figures released by the ONS show that 45 people died from cold homes every day before the bruising cost of living crisis escalated.
There were 13,400 more deaths between December 2021 to March 2022 compared with average non-winter months, according to a fuel poverty charity that analysed the Official for National Statistics (ONS) data.
The findings will heighten worries about the impact of soaring energy prices this winter – with electricity and gas prices forcing some to make grim choices between eating or heating.

There are far more winter deaths due to cold than summer deaths due to heat and it seems, as far as lefty eco zealots are concerned, their virtuous sacrifice is worth it, to save the planet!
