THE 10-day suspension of Parliament amid a “terrifying cost-of-living crisis” was slammed by campaigners today.

Proceedings in both the House of Commons and Lords are set to be put on hold until after the funeral of the queen next Monday.

Following two days of tributes by MPs to Elizabeth Windsor, who died on Thursday, Parliament is not due to sit again until Wednesday September 21, the day before a further suspension is due to allow for party conference season.
