    Why not start the cuts in Westminster, breakfast allowance, heating allowance, subsidised bar, and many more.
    I don't get my breakfast paid for or my heating, it comes out of my Taxed salary....

      Because that really won't make much difference.
      Means testing the winter fuel payment can raise billions. What would that raise? A million? It won't have any impact

      House of lords 361 quid a day allowance , they go to the bar pick up their money then its off to the sex club in soho - 738 lords x £361 PER DAY EACH = covers the bedroom tax .One lord one day covers 6 peoples bed tax for a month = unclogs the housing market

    It won’t make any difference. Starmer says he’s in charge. So it goes ahead.

    So what's the point of putting a motion forward, winning the vote and then nothing being done 🤔

      This vote was moved from its position before the PM’s speech to save him embarrassment. A millionaire needs a bung to give his son somewhere quiet to study, which planet is he on ? What a piece of work he is !

      I doubt any Labour MP's voted in favour of reversing the cut in this conference vote. This vote was by Labour delegates. Only 1 Labour MP had the guts to vote against the cuts in parliament, and over 50 abstained.

    Starmer saying if they hadn’t would have caused a market meltdown is rubbish. The inflation busting pay rises cost billions more are more likely to cause a market meltdown. Starmer and ‘Thieves’ shows they are out of there depth
