Abhorrent 2 tier Kier, shameless Labour completely out of touch with the British people and pensioners. Labour made it complicated to apply they are shameful
Def need an inquiry into how many die from cold. Quite frankly it won’t happen we are disposable and more pensioners that die is a result for gov. Less pensioners to pay money too. Never thought that uk would gov would stoop so low. Net zero will kill thousands.
All you wonderful OAPs please put your heating on Stay warm then send your bill to your local Labour MP Every decent person is behind you all Do NOT sit in a cold house !!!!!!!!!!!
I feel for our pensioners, of which I am nearly one, still working. On the news last night,it said to keep your heating on over night. Some can’t keep it on in the day! Whilst Starmer is enjoying the nice weather in Madera and MP’s get their heating paid by the tax payer. Disgusting.
Why say pension is going up in April when they would have that anyway,it doesn’t matter how much they get in April they still would be missing the heating allowance.
I suppose you can't really knock Starmer for taking a winter break in warmer clime's. After all he won't be the only 'Brit' taking a winter break overseas, but it's the sheer Irony of it that 'sticks in the craw' of most of us.
After all that is currently going on how callous and clueless to go oh holiday leaving a country in the mess he has created. This should be the final straw .
I feel so sad that not enough has been said or done for the pensioners it seems to have gone quiet from the media and the public they are a forgotten generation shamefull
Governments own risk assessment estimated around 5000 pensioners would succumb to the cold with the removal of winter fuel allowance 🤔. Not much compassion there is there ?
Sir Kier Starmer has had a dreadful six months, the poor man needs a break..............I will retract that..has anyone else noticed when there is controversy at 'home' he takes himself out of the country.....
He doesn’t care about us pensioners. For too busy clocking up his air miles in the private jet. Madeira on holiday with wife and kids. Pushing to the front of a queue for the Funchal slay ride. I’ve just seen on another site that his wife has filed for divorce??. Can’t confirm.

Starmer needs to go and most of the civil servants who made this decision Try and get help from council good luck with that Why one of my neighbours is 33 never had a job but get 25 Pound every time it gets cold
He’s missing all the fracas with the grooming gangs’ depraved behaviour being exposed, while he’s hiding in Madeira. . Wasn’t he head of CPS while all this was going on and being covered up and peopke silenced. Was there money involved? He certainly is always boasting about his position when in fact he was a complete failure. It’s all coming to the fore now. Perhaps he’ll be jailed for being complicit with shocking child abuse.
1.4Bn saved from removal of fuel allowance helps by partially funding the pay rises for the public sector estimated to be c £11bn in total.... pay the public sector more results in higher pensions for them when they retire resulting in further pressure on government budgets downstream to fund these
The energy companies are not helping by putting prices up during winter and reducing in spring / summer or not giving pensioners a special deal , its not just labour taking away cold payment , , more could be done for the elderly sick and disabled
@@gailcrook2687 cheers Gail ,just be careful they will take the monthly payment but if you use more than the stipulated amount of energy they will sting you for it ,my new contract with octopus started at £152 per month in September 24 they have now raised it from December 24 to £175 per month I am in credit £350 but they still put it up ,we are pensioners and it’s still a fair old wedge from our money,cheers again Gail and best wishes
No I won't put my heating on! EoN helped me by sending me a wrongly calculated bill for over £600 for two month's energy as if I wasn't worried enough. I'm just cold and really tired now. Can't be bothered to protest any more.
Talk's Mike Graham says: "Keir Starmer is enjoying himself in Madeira." What he forgot to say was the pensioners who lost their WFP could be just as easily be in Spain zooming around on mobility scooters, playing bingo and eating fish and chips all nice and warm. Not to mention the ones on the 30 day SAGA winter cruises in the Caribbean. OK for some, while the rest of us stay at home trying to keep warm. Soon be spring stay warm stay safe.
But think of the savings the withdrawal of the wfa will make. A good job nowhere near the number of entitled pensioners have claimed credit, or any savings would be cancelled out.
I'm worried about paying the heating bill, but I've put it on, I'm not going to freeze, if I can't pay, what are they going to do to me. The starmer creature is a complete disgrace.
The cold isn't good for the disabled either, but god forbid you mention that. I don't remember pensioners protesting when the disabled were targeted via austerity. The boot is on the other foot now, enjoy it!
I'm a pensioner now but I walked miles leafleting for the labour party and now the party, starmer, wants to stop my heating allowance! I will never ever vote for this shower of idiots again! Bring back the Tories!!!
Never has there been such a shamelessly inconsiderate and out of touch Prime Minister.
Keir Stalin is like Biden. He is always on holiday. Somewhere hot while our elderly are freezing.
Tories was just as bad
@@jasoncooper1728when did the Tories withdraw the winter fuel allowance?
@robbeales5516 no but they was Responsible for the deaths of Thousands of sick and disabled people
Labour are alot worse@@jasoncooper1728
Sunning it up Starmer could give 2 fks , he needs to be removed,,
But replaced by who ? If Starmer stood down, we'd be looking at Lammy, Reeves, Cooper or Raynor as our new PM !!!!
Not a nice thought🤮
The replacement would be Streeting after an instant Reshuffle once all Kiers crimes come to light & he simple cannot fight the tide any longer
Did he raise the pensions to 221.00 knowing the limit on credits was 218.00 no he did not so do your research
He doesn’t have to worry about keeping warm or his cronies and their illegal immigrants in 5* hotels
I'm sorry, but you are wrong... They are staying in ' only ' 4 star hotels....

Let's be honest, Starmer couldn't care less about British pensioners, he's far more concerned with being able to virtue signal
He's not interested in the people of this country.
The Ali clothed queue jumper doesn't give a damn.
How many pensioners will die, From the cold heart attacks and other cold related illnesses.😢

Jetting it up Starmer and V8 Range Rover Khan helping with those net zero targets!
Flying all over the world, and wrecking our economy and country is very tiring.
So he thinks he needs a warm well deserved rest.
Never mind the CO2 output from his needless overseas trips.
@tokyosundeiru2006 Net zero for us but not for them.
You have to wonder if Starmer is taking orders from someone above .
Hopefully he will stay there
who is funding the bill for his bodygaurds us OAP's winter fuel payments that we didnt get

Ironic is it not that Age uk etc approved the cut in winter allowance.
DWP are not even paying what they should. I do not get pension credo though legally entitled.

That's the point but the lab gov are not investing in the NHS or social care but hey ho they may bring in death by prescription
