the bbc economic editor says, both kwasi kwarteng and jacob rees—mogg in attendance at a meeting with ceos were clearly understood the scale of the challenge and need to play their part. there are already discussions going on, even before liz truss becomes prime minister, but until we get those details of a plan, at the moment it remains in the realm of media briefings to journalists rather than something the whole country can see and assess. back to foreign relations. ukraine and russia a big priority for liz truss. so is the european union. the president of the european commission has congratulated liz truss. she added that she looked forward to a constructive relationship, "in full respect of agreements" between the two sides. it's apparently a reference to the fact that as foreign minister, truss championed legislation that would unilaterally tear up part of britain's brexit deal with the eu. here'sjessica parker in brussels. there is an element of distrust because there's history there. namely, liz truss has been in charge of trying to renegotiate post—brexit trading arrangements

social media, no time in parliament for mps to ask questions of the business secretary, jacob rees—mogge big question is, how long will it continue? there will be a review after three months, two may be better focused the support in future. maybe extend the scheme or replace it with something else. how much is it going to cost? the government cannot say because it doesn't know what is going to happen to energy prices but we are talking about tens of billions of pounds worth of support. and then how will it be paid for? in case you hadn't noticed, this government isn't interested in raising taxes, so it will have to be done through borrowing. the government accepts that will be a burden, but one that will be borne by the public finances as a whole. we may get some more detailfrom this as a whole. we may get some more detail from this government about its overall economic approach on friday when the chancellor makes his statement to parliament.— statement to parliament. jonathan, thank ou. statement to parliament. jonathan, thank you. jonathan _ statement to parliament. jonathan, thank yo

jacob rees—mogg, we expect him to be made the energy secretary tomorrow. it's obviously going to take a huge bill to take on all of the increase in energy costs. we expect that to be around £100 billion, and the first tranche could cost around a0 billion, we understand, which would involve a freeze on wholesale gas prices until around january, so that's taking us through this year into january. when we were expecting the price cap to go up and really hit people in the pocket during the cost of living crisis. the plan at my colleagues reported today, is the wholesale cost, it will be retained at current price cap levels. we are not sure of the mechanisms and how it will work and how the crucial cash will be paid back, but we saw kwasi kwarteng writing in the times yesterday, saying the government are not afraid to borrow big to get to grips with the crisis that is about to hit us. , . ., to hit us. interesting, we will come back and look— to hit us. interesting, we will come back and look at those _ to hit us. interesting, we will come back and look at thos

the shadow energy secretary's responded to mr rees mogg's announcement.ly that it can be done safely." they are lifting the ban, but they can't supply the evidence. it comes as the british geological survey published a new scientific review into fracking. the bgs has concluded there is still a limited understanding of the impacts of drilling gas and oilfrom shale rock. the review says hf — that's hydraulic fracturing, another term for fracking — can trigger earthquakes large enough to cause structural damage. these events were not predicted in advance of operations. speaking to lawmakers, the energy secretary if dismissed those concerns. it isa it is a safe, it is shown to be safe, the scare stories have been disproved time and again. the h steria disproved time and again. the hysteria about _ disproved time and again. tie: hysteria about seismic disproved time and again. he hysteria about seismic activity fails to understand the richter scale is a logarithmic scale, it seems to think it is a straight scale, which it is not. and bringing on this supply wi

meeting a couple of weeks ago between some big energy companies and kwasi kwarteng and jacob rees—moggabour proposed a windfall tax. labour have proposed a freeze which it looks like liz truss will do. she would try to combine that with the sort of things gerard has been talking about in terms of taxes. but theissue talking about in terms of taxes. but the issue is, does it add up. that's why kwasi kwarteng's article in the financial times this morning is important because he is saying to financial markets, don't worry too much. he says there will be fiscal loosening, which means borrowing more money to pay for it, but they will be fiscally neutral. i will be watching out for, is there going to be a spending review at some point because if this trust is going to propose a big freezing of bills, plus tax reductions then there will have to be government spending and where does that money come from and where does that money come from and where does that money come from and where do you cut and will that make life more difficult for the public sector bus to knock at the moment it is like,

the capri smog, the business secretary, acknowledged that earlier —— jacob rees—mogg. that something needed to be done for business, that it should be done for business, that it should be done for business, that it should be done on a scale is what was done for households, and the government says it's thinking here is that this is a vendetta probably equivalent. i do not think there is any argument between the various parties that some thing of this scale needed to happen. where the political differences tend to like is how you pay for it. as i said the government is looking to more borrowing to pay for that. 0pposition parties would go for a windfall tax instead, on energy producers in the north sea. that is something the government has not gone for, it wants to be seen as a tax—cutting government. it is not so far going there on when full taxes. the other political difference lies on timescale and the questions around that. liberal democrats suggest this is coming too late. some businesses say they would have shut that did not have to if the government moved faster.

"vladimir putin has weaponised energy," said mr rees—mogg.," he said. "this is a charterfor earthquakes," responded ed miliband. you can't escape a fossil fuels crisis by doubling down on fossilfuels. renewables are today nine times cheaper than gas. but britain's biggest private company says it is ready to exploit what it believes could be a vast resource. research says it could be dramatically large. - it could be as big as the north sea. but we don't know that until we can do the science and that's _ what we are asking to do. the government says the current rules on earthquakes are too strict and will be changed, but a new geological survey says there is still limited understanding of the risk — and that's not the only issue, say campaigners. what we need to talk about is our energy use and demand. that means we need a nationwide programme insulating homes all over the uk to reduce our bills but also for the climate. we don't need fracking, which will make the climate emergency even worse than it already is. so here's the question. will fr

she made a point, and jacob rees mogg there of course will be supporting this, she made a point of singlingl have a job in the cabinet. it is difficult for those mps who have publicly come out and said that this is a mad idea, to start cutting taxes at the moment people need help with their bills. she says she will do both. how you pay for that is the big question, of course. she is someone on that wing of the party where they believe in giving people more of their own money rather than taking it and giving it back in what they would call complicated ways. but she is coming in at a time when people are clamouring for help, after the covid pandemic, the furlough scheme which we thought would probably never be replicated, the idea that you pay millions of people to stay at home and not work, to keep businesses open. it won't necessarily be on that scale, but we are still talking potentially about billions of pounds of public money, and it goes against her philosophy when it comes to the economy, but she says she is all about growing the economy, she wants to boost growth because in the end, s

the business secretary jacob rees—mogg said the move would help to strengthen the country's energy securityr earthquakes. it is more environmentally friendly to use our own sources of fuel rather than to extract them from other countries and transport them here at great cost, both financially and in terms of carbon. it is something, therefore, that we need to revisit and we need to revisit the seismic limits to ensure that shale gas extraction can be done in an effective and efficient way. mr speaker, this is obviously a case of the dog ate my homework, and hardly surprising. let's start by taking his excuse for lifting the fracking ban, mr speaker, that it will make a difference to the energy bills crisis — it won't — because gas is sold on the international market. the current chancellor said so in february of this year and i quote, "no amount of shale gas would be enough to the to lower the european price of gas." even, mr speaker, the founder of cuadrilla, said the secretary of state is wrong in an article published yesterday. so first, why doesn't he admit the truth that anyone who kno
