Can we survive without Russian gas and oil? And how will war affect the cost of living?

By ITV News

Can the UK survive without Russia’s oil and gas? When will the sanctions on Russia really start to bite? And how will the crisis affect your everyday living costs?

ITV News Political Reporter Shehab Khan finds out what you need to know from our Business and Economics Editor Joel Hills and Consumer Editor Chris Choi.

In the episode, Joel addresses the tricky exodus of global brands and companies from Russia and the unusual statements some household names are putting out to justify staying.

Chris identifies the products which will now be in far smaller supply in the UK following the invasion and outlines why the UK's commitment to a greener future has been seriously compromised by the ongoing conflict.

And Joel also explains why the sanctions that forced Roman Abramovich to relocate his yacht are nothing compared to the financial crisis that will soon hit impoverished Russians.
