Stephen Flynn slams Rishi Sunak over private pool upgrade

SNP Westminster leader Stephen Flynn called out the Prime Minister for upgrading the energy grid surrounding his estate to heat his private pool accusing him of “taking a leisurely dip” while preparing to “leave households drowning in their energy expenses”.

It follows news earlier this week that Tory Prime Minister Rishi Sunak had paid to have the local energy infrastructure around his North Yorkshire home updated to handle the demands of his brand-new private pool.

During Prime Minister’s Questions, Flynn probed Sunak about the scandal in advance of the Spring Budget, which may see the Government abandon its practise of giving all households a refund on their energy bills.
