The quarterly energy price cap will rise by 2% from 1 October 2025.

This will be a rise of around £2.93 per month for the average household.

This is a cap on energy unit price plus standing charge, not a cap on total bills.

After two incredible years, I’ve decided to step down as CEO of 𝕏.

When @elonmusk and I first spoke of his vision for X, I knew it would be the opportunity of a lifetime to carry out the extraordinary mission of this company. I’m immensely grateful to him for entrusting me with the responsibility of protecting free speech, turning the company around, and transforming X into the Everything App. 

I’m incredibly proud of the X team - the historic business turn around we have accomplished together has been nothing short of remarkable. 

We started with the critical early work necessary to prioritize the safety of our users—especially children, and to restore advertiser confidence. This team has worked relentlessly from groundbreaking innovations like Community Notes, and, soon, X Money to bringing the most iconic voices and content to the platform. Now, the best is yet to come as X enters a new chapter with @xai .

X is truly a digital town square for all voices and the world’s most powerful culture signal. We couldn’t have achieved that without the support of our users, business partners, and the most innovative team in the world. 

I’ll be cheering you all on as you continue to change the world. 

As always, I’ll see you on 𝕏

Huge shout out to the wonderful @FYF_charity - Corr gave another inspiring talk to all the #ajbellluminary ladies. Such a brilliant event @Investcentre

Was great to be part of this excellent piece by Paul and the @ITVTonight team. Poll after poll shows how worried people are about their finances, but for some households there could be some better news with interest rates and energy prices expected to fall over the year.

🏡🤔With interest rates coming down, could we see a significant reduction in mortgage payments?

Inflation has been tricky to predict but forecasts for November were bang on.

@SmartSacks @bankofengland I think there will be many who feel the same as you and I think we are in for a lot of “holds”

[Danni Hewson @dannihewson]

As expected the @bankofengland cuts interest rates by 0.25% but already 1 member wanted to hold and reading the report is clear there are big concerns about #inflation - something no household wants to hear.

[Bank of England @bankofengland]

The Monetary Policy Committee voted by a majority of 8-1 to reduce #BankRate to 4.75%. Find out more in our #MonetaryPolicyReport: https://t.co/lEYCgPolsz
