Ofgem boss calls for 'urgent action' over price cap rise.
Millions of households will see their energy bills rocket as the price cap is hiked to £3,549 a year, plunging many into financial hardship.
Ofgem boss Jonathan Brearley told Sky News that "urgent and decisive" action is needed by the next incoming prime minister.
The rise follows a 54% increase in April, which saw average bills surge to £1,971 a year.
