Not 1 person in that room care about any of us. 😡🇬🇧🇬🇧🇬🇧🇬🇧🇬🇧
Hell no. She has to go.
The only cute innocent and bored soul in the house is that service dog lying on the floor.

For God's sake leave the pensioners alone. We have worked 50 years for governments that do nothing for the country but argue amongst themselves. Politicians line their own pockets for their own retirement. Poorer senior citizens are at risk during the winter months. Already people cannot afford to heat their homes on our pitiful pension. How about retrieving monies from those that are rolling in the dishonest wealth obtained through quangos and self contracting in one's own companies. Remember that the senior citizens of today are the ones that supported all the past argumentative twisted governments. LEAVE OUR PENSIONS ALONE !
The winter fuel payment is currently doled out to every pensioner, and often to those who don’t need it. Why should I, a worker in 30s with a family, pay for a millionaire pensioners electricity bill? It should be means tested and that’s what they are doing. A good move.
@@Kurt-u4nadd to that that all in their 30s and under have been lumbered by this Tory government with nothing but issues. Tripled tuition fees, impossible
To rent before even considering buying one. Our costs have risen while our salaries haven’t any where near the level of inflation…
indeed even the diabolical and dispicable thatcher didn't urinate on the pensioners whilst emptying her bowels on British manufacturing.
@@Kurt-u4n - What is your family's annual income? Pension Credit can only be claimed by an individual pensioner if their income is less than £11,343.80 per year. Most State Pensions are just above that.
@@johnwoods7650understood. Improve the eligibility criteria for pension credit then, but still think it should be means tested. Lots of other people struggle with paying bills, I don’t see why pensioners should get handouts over others. Particularly given most don’t have mortgages and have generally lower expenses anyway.
Take the axe to.foreign aid and devolopmemt aid why do british people have to suffer all the rime
KEIR TWO TIER.
The liar Chancellor and Home Secretary.
Please, don’t say, thoughts and prayers. It’s vacuous.
Well there goes all the support from the OAPs, should have known better
it's okay, we won't have to worry about them in 5 years
@@turquoise7817yes they will be. Because at last we have a competent government instead of the chaos , we can’t spend money we don’t have
@paulchadwick9419 true
The winter fuel removal won't affect that many pensioners - it's not that big a deal. What I'm far more alarmed about is the apparent scrapping of the social care plan.

Granny freezer reeves
It's a real bashing for the elderly. Winter fuel payment's taken, and the cap on social care costs from 2025 abolished.

@@Kurt-u4nspot on - the comment is likely from a frustrated and very confused Tory supporter in total denial of the carnage they caused over the last 5 years!
It's so easy to pick holes in this new Labour government, same old smoke and mirrors from Starmer and Labour. I fear this country is on it's knees.
How Dare They It Is Not True
No Change
the telegraph must be happy with the new Tory chancellor 😂
so why not increase tax on the very rich and those that have buisness abroad that live in the uk and are getting away with murder.
Why isn't Starmer in Southport?
?
Reeves is a liar
Tory sc.um
Labour sc.um
@@KuwaharaBMXRider I am not a Labour voter. 15 years of Tory mess, austerity, Brexit, lies, higher depths (Covid not included), scandals, nepotism….
We the British People, we want the number of INDIAN AND PAKISTAN PEOPLE COMMING INTO ENGLAND THIS HAS TO STOP ASAP
Well done Rachel Reeves… Fix this country!
By pretending she didn't know anything about the 20 billion blackhole,even though it's been in the public domain, and was double that only a few years ago. Getting rid of winter fuel payments to pensioners, abolishing the social care cost cap, which was due to come in next year. And giving strong hints of cuts to bennifits for the disabled.
@@KevenHutchinson-gt1nnconsidering the OBR had no idea until last week it just proves the tories hid as much as possible…
@Darkscorponok They did know, so did the IFS
@@KevenHutchinson-gt1nnno they didn’t, the OBR and official monetary committees including the House of Commons were in the dark. The chair of the OBR published a letter as stated that they didn’t know about this until last week… two weeks after the last government were removed. They had every opportunity to come clean and as usual they didn’t because they were too busy lining their own pockets.
"stable conditions are needed for investors" - Labour have done anything other than make things stable so their econimic growth manifesto has already failed?
