governing conservative party has been suspended over allegations he watched pornography in the house of commons chamber. neil parish has referred himself to the parliamentary standards commissioner, and says he'll cooperate fully with any investigation. new figures show the extent of the cost of living crisis, with around 90% of people across britain, saying they're having to pay more for essentials. the office for national statistics, says food, fuel and energy, were the main commodities those surveyed, said had shot up in price. citizens advice has also told the bbc that the number of pay—as—you—go energy customers seeking help, is already higher so far this year, than for the whole of 2021. here's our business editor, simonjack. thank you for calling. how is it i can help you today in this department? most customers of this energy company in hampshire are on prepaid metres. sorry, just take deep breaths and i'll look through this and i'm sure that we'll be able to do something for you, 0k? many are living day—to—day. so, do you have any debts outside of utility? eking out their energy between benefit and wage payments. what day do you get paid? some are desperate. we had a customer that found us a couple of weeks ago that had to sell all their belongings in order to be able to heat or eat. april's crippling rising bills has been too much for some, and there is worse to come when bills rise again in october. we were already seeing people in financial stress during this last winter. it was a relatively mild winter. you know, 54% price increase now, another 20% in october, it's going to be, i think one of my industry colleagues described it as being horrific. i think that's probably a fair statement. anything on stand—by will actually use up your credit. the calls being taken behind me are from the front—line of the cost—of—living crisis, people unable to heat their homes, their food or both. and although energy prices are the biggest shock to household incomes, it's not the only one. food prices are rising, petrol and diesel have set records in recent weeks, and national insurance went up in april, reducing take—home pay. the biggest cost—of—living squeeze in 70 years got under way in earnest in april, and it's affecting millions of people. in the streets of eastleigh, everyone was feeling it and having to make changes. everything's gone up — gas, electric, council tax went up. i didn't get a pay rise this year. the tax on national insurance has all changed as well. if i get the cooker on or whatever, i make sure the heating's off because i think, well, while i'm cooking, i'm warm enough. things like holidays and like that- are out of the question, days out and things - because it's more important. we've got to eat and heat our house and everything. - citizens advice saw an eightfold increase in calls from prepayment metre customers this april. so far this year, we've already helped as many people as we did in the whole of 2021 with not being able to afford to keep their prepayment metre topped up. and so we're really seeing a huge increase in that issue, and in march, we also saw a record number of people coming to us for a crisis support in terms of fuel vouchers as people just don't have enough money to eat and live. with hardship like this, little wonder the chancellor is under pressure to increase support beyond the £350 per household package already announced before bills rise again just before winter. simonjack, bbc news, eastleigh, hampshire. now on bbc news, our world. last year, san francisco had twice as many deaths from drug overdoses as covid. in the tenderloin district alone, where thousands of homeless people have pitched tents, three people a week are dying, while drugs are sold and consumed openly on the street. a warning this programme contains images which some viewers might find disturbing. san francisco is one of the richest cities in the world. but below its gleaming buildings lies a humanitarian disaster. can i ask what you are smoking, so?
