The money saving expert Martin Lewis was left with his head in his hands

after a former Conservative minister said that people should put foil behind their radiators to heat up their home better. Mr Lewis was hosting ITV's Good Morning Britain on Monday, September 5, with one of the guests being former MP Edwina Currie.

Martin's response sparked a flood of comments on Twitter, as he was backed by viewers - while Edwina was called out, the Mirror reports. Edwina had said: "What we have to do is not get emotional about it to the exclusion of using common sense, to try and sit down to try and think about what we can all do, whether it is in businesses or in homes.

"Not everyone can I accept that, but many of us can do something. We have to be cool and calm. Panic and emotion, it drains the energy when what we need to do is conserve the energy and use it well." She then spoke of Germany handing their own rise in bills by turning off street lamps and shops being asked to reduce lighting. While backing that her advice included great tips, Martin placed his head in his hands as he urged the former political to understand that the tips alone would not work to bring bills down.
