'One suggestion is maybe increasing the threshold with more pensioners being able to keep hold of it' On #BBCBreakfast Health Secretary Wes Streeting was asked about speculation that the Government may look again at cutting winter fuel payments to pensioners

damage done, too late for @UKLabour nearly a year in office & alienated nearly everyone in the UK!

Protect your money now! Two US banks collapsed, billions trapped. Invest in gold, a retirement hedge outside of the government's control.

The face and voice of @UKLabour who don’t get it and are just 2 faced liars. He couldn’t answer a single question directly and truthfully and just kept blurting out the people voted for change

Winter fuel assisted dying benefit cuts for disabled non of those policy’s were in the manifesto I voted on

So now they're considering keeping the winter fuel payments for some pensioners? The government’s idea of "help" is tinkering at the edges while people suffer. Meanwhile, the monarchy stays insulated from reality. #NotMyKing

If you are only getting the state pension of £924 a month you don't get any help you are too well off

They could reinstate it tomorrow and it wouldn’t make a jot of difference, this vile government have literally piddled off and, alienated the majority of the Great British people❗️

Needs to be reinstated. Stop MP’s expenses

The threshold you need to increase is personal tax allowance . This would negate the need to pay fuel payments as many pensioners would no longer have to pay tax on their small private pensions and therefore have more money for energy bills.

insane

The only political party on the planet to legislate for a pre-planned #geriatric #genocide to ‘prevent the economy from imminent collapse’ #WinterFuelPayment #scum #RachelThieves
