Spitefully stealing winter fuel allowance from poorer and vulnerable pensioners is both shameful and a disgrace. Then to hand that money cruelly snatched to big unions for their huge rises is nothing short of criminal. Why does the Labour government hate the elderly so much?
If the MPs cannot pay for their fuel bill on their second home then sell it. The money needs to go to people in need. Ie the elderly pensioners. Labour you are a disgrace,you are not for the people, you are for yourself what can I get whilst in power.
Ordinary MPs on £94,000 a year + expenses & ministers who get an extra £64,000 on top of the basic get a £3,000 winter fuel allowance. A pure example of Two Tier finances of them & us. Shame on Labour
Many parents are feral themselves, you can see it, the biggest detriment to this country and started the decline in society, is DISCIPLIN, RESPECT, and no MORAL COMPASS. Just take a long hard look at what's acceptable and tolerated now, well and truly reaping it now 🤷🏻♀️
Do MPs get fuel payments for their several houses. They should pay for them all. They have more money than they know what to do with. Stop fleecing the poor .
Less than 1.5bn to keep our grannies warm this winter after a 10% fuel hike that was supposed to be a £400 a year saving. 11bn given to foreign climate aid, 10bn keeping migrants warm and fed after contributing nothing to our economy. Labour can't last surely.
@@daviddavidk2352I sincerely hope all the volunteers who have given their time free of charge to help their communities and country raising one billion pounds walk out in disgust 😢
make sure if you are a working mans job you do not get a pension, and spend spend spend all any icome you make, You will then qualify for all the benefits going when you retire
I feel sorrow. My old age parents was being terrorized by a gang of teenagers. I stopped it finally after the Police failed to respond. I got treated as the criminal by the Police, and the gang of teenagers was treated as victims.
The Question you should have asked but no one does, is...Are Politicians still getting their Winter Fuel Payments? Politicians with Second Homes get it.
I won't get the winter fuel allowance because I am just over the line to receive pension credit. So this winter, depending on how cold it will be, shall be hard for me I started work when I was 16. I am now 70. I've worked all my life and Paid into the system. I don't expect free handouts, but I can't understand why this new government has turned on us the pensioners.we are not migrants seeking free accommodation or benefits. I myself will have to keep my heating down by moving into just one room, which shall be easier to control my expenses. Thank you, Labour, for nothing 😢
@@mathewgrover6455 some even those still working can't afford those awful fuel bills now so how can poorer pensioners pay they just cannot. What a disgrace in this day and age.
You should expect free handouts because the very criminals who have condemned you and others to this hardship are in fact going to claim their very own heating allowance whilst at same time they earn obscene amounts of cash,
Before voting for Labour, I was told their top priority is to grow economy not to pick on pensioners like me, who have no other means to survive. I believe that means test should be defined as means weighted between the existing means and alternative means. Pensioners like me have zero alternative means.
This is nothing to do with asylum seekers and refugess. It is against older people who are seen to be costing too much. Why did charles get £45million pay increase? He is already a millionaire and yet you criticise people who could contribute to our society if they were allowed. reform has a lot to answer for. Rwanda was NEVER a solution
10 million pensioners voted for labour to change things for the better. So what do they do stop the winter payments for them . shame on them to treat people that voted them in like this.
One word, “Discipline”. It has been taken from Schools; Parents; police; and many others, and worst of all the ravel in Parliament just watch PM questions.
Don’t go on about v wealthy pensioners. Their numbers are so minute, it’s irrelevant. The state pension is half that of the rest of Europe already, including Spain, France, Germany and even Greece! And we are the fifth richest country in the world for goodness sake!
I still can't believe what Labour had done, I have been waiting for years for some fairness for poorer people and have always thought that Labour was the party of the working people, but to take £300 away from pensioners who are living on £12000 a year and give it to train drivers on £65000 a year is unbelievable, I shall never vote for Labour again.

All grew up happy and respected ours, we had no problems at all they were good hard working and happy adults. My parents had harder smacks than we had and none of them were unhappy of hurt for life. some like my father forught in the 2nd world war in the royal navy and the canning if any he got at school made him respect the law and care about fellow people. But since the EU banned canning what do we have as the result, tons of nasty kids whom think nothing of anyone but themselves, they vandalize they attack people they break laws and got away with crimes that even a adult would not do! Bring back canning and within a year the UK will have kids who respect and behave again and the thing is, very few kids ever got canned, the cane is not just a punishment, it makes the rest who may be thinking to mis-behaving to not do so because the canning in front of the rest of the class or school is a huge embarrassment to the one being canned their " street cred " as they call it now will be left looking so bad they will not be so big and bold again. the rest sees what could happen to them too and don't mis-behave. it must be brought back if need be use a robotic canning unit than a teacher or head teacher. unless we do this the kids will be totally beyond any control. if they complain to the EU even though we left it, we just tell the EU it is a internal matter of justice and none of their business.
I’m on a basic pension, but don’t get pension credit. I live alone and I’m not a wealthy pensioner. I will miss this help with my bills this winter. And I voted for them! 😔

My winter fuel allowance was cut.! I was told all Mediterranean countries where cut! Where I live i Spain the winters are freezing living on a fixed income
Reeves just before cancelling the heating allowance for pensioners claimed thousand of £s for her heating bill. Shows how hypocritical the government is. I wonder what Starmer says when the first pensioner passes away as she has no heating or hot food.
Asylum seekers(illegal economic migrants )are paid £40 pw, reported cost £40k p.a., £400k over their life.(= 7/100/1,000 equivalent £300 pensioners fuel allowance). The UK pension = less than 29% of min wage the lowest in Europe including Ireland. The best is 90% !!
You cannot defend the indefensible - train driver on £65,000 a year gets £10,000 pay rise, pensioners on less than £20,000 gets £300 fuel allowance one off payment per winter stopped - unions rule as always with liebour!!!!!
The north is colder than the south fact. Rachel Reeves is a Labour MP for Leeds West although she is never ever seen. My friend has been trying to get an apointmen to see her since last October. Maybe, people should question her commitment to her constituencys. Does she hold a face to face? How many times is sheen in the area? How long does it take for her office to answer e-mails? How come she is getting off scott free when people shout at Farage . My friend says she is and has been an awful MP and does absolutley for Leeds West. Ask about her acheivements for making Leeds West better?
Close the border to boat and lorry economic migrants, saving billions. Stop giving money away to funding union demands and cur the Foreign Aid budget to 10%. In Rachel Reeves own words, "If we can't afford it, we can't do it". Pensioners have paid into the system most of their working lives. On and during their retirement, they should be rewarded and provided for.
50k per year each unwanted unskilled immigrant per year in accommodation and living allowances and yet a pensioner with just 13k per year loses winter fuel allowance 😢 where are the government priorities gone so wrong
Britain must STOP being so generous that is the attraction! Money for the hotel, phones, food et c what an attraction for people with nothing! Stop giving money!!!!!!!
8 pound a week is generous is it that's all immigrants get a week .. Who stole billions ohhh yeah the king and the rich establishment stole our money they say point your finger to poor people disabled people and unemployed people it's their fault they say to you in their daily owned media like the daily mail sun express in fact 99%of media do the rich man's bidding
The amount saved 1.5 billion pounds, is apparently little more than `peanuts` in the broader scheme of things. It almost seems that the pensioners are being `targeted` for some reason. I do hope it is nothing to do with the demographics of voting, because that would mean that the promise from the new PM "I am here to serve all of you` would just be `hot air`, and amount to public scorn being poured on any statement of assurance made in the future.
Rachel Reeves has taken over Pudsey in the boundry changes. The previuos MP was seen at church, at local events at local shops. NO ONE HAS SEEN RACHEL REEVES in Leeds West. What does this tell you about her character. She is a Londoner after all.
Ok for her to take £4,400 to pay for her fuel costs,that just shows what sort of people they are,earning what they earn,yet tax payer has to pay for there fuel costs,dont worry bout those millions wasted on hotel bills,yet they still do nothing about the small boats

I live in a village full of “elderly “ still looking for the one in three pensioners who are millionaires….. we have all known each other for. 50-60 yrs… get real govt. that woman speaks with such spite in her voice. Tell her not to claim her heating allowance.
Listening to this woman reminds me of listening to Tony Blair - after a few seconds, nausea sets in. I'll turn off whenever she's talking and hope for a general election before the five years.
My wife and i are in our ,80 we ate neing bullied buy next door Nabour we reported this to the police six months ago they gave us a crime number and told us some one would ring us in with two weeks we still haven't been contacted what do we do next ?
900 is 17 per week reeves heating costs lot more than that. Can you heat your house for 17.00 per week in winter no you can't. Actually you get heating costs paid for so you don't have any costs. It's an utter disgrace what you reeves disgusting
WFP should be based on £1 below the minimum living wage (£24.999) thus saving money from those pensioners Like King Charles III, all millionairs, MP's and the more well off
Just listening to some guy although sideline with pensioners just made a statement about 35 years paying stamps does he not know we started at fifteen and retired at sixty five that’s 15 years he’s not counting
Well she would not care as her salary will be more than ample and still get a fuel allowance don't worry about us we can put on more jumpers thanks alot for nothing
Winter fuel payments have only been cut for wealthy pensioners that can afford to pay. The pension is going up £400 a year so this will alleviate it. And the Tories planned to cut the payments for ALL if they got in. So, moving on....
🤔It was only around 10 days or so ago, that I watched the PM giving a speech, and saying that energy companies were declaring exceptional enormous profits, and was talking about a "windfall-tax" being applied! ... Supposedly the Gov. is unable to apply a 'cap' on the amount of profits being made, but surely this "windfall-tax" should go towards the pensioner's allowances?
I have no time for Labour the winter fuel allowance had to be reformed, How many rich pensioners were getting £200? The pensioners who need it will still get it, It’s £3:84 a week or 0.54p a day. I don’t like what they have done but the richer pensions are not going to just hand it back, They will just bank it. Just my opinion.
Rich pensioners are a very small proportion. People who only just do not qualify are going to suffer the most. My husband and I got £100.00 each and as the person who pays the bills, that barely covered half of one month's dual fuel bill.
Stop the winter fuel payments for all MPs they claim enough
Spitefully stealing winter fuel allowance from poorer and vulnerable pensioners is both shameful and a disgrace. Then to hand that money cruelly snatched to big unions for their huge rises is nothing short of criminal. Why does the Labour government hate the elderly so much?

Bring back canning and within a year the UK will have kids who respect and behave again and the thing is, very few kids ever got canned, the cane is not just a punishment, it makes the rest who may be thinking to mis-behaving to not do so because the canning in front of the rest of the class or school is a huge embarrassment to the one being canned their " street cred " as they call it now will be left looking so bad they will not be so big and bold again.
the rest sees what could happen to them too and don't mis-behave.
it must be brought back if need be use a robotic canning unit than a teacher or head teacher. unless we do this the kids will be totally beyond any control.
if they complain to the EU even though we left it, we just tell the EU it is a internal matter of justice and none of their business.
That is a brilliant description of the Labour party😅
Why do we need 3 councellors per ward?
Anyone who retired last year dont get pension credits FACT
The kiddies have grown up seeing and hearing every party treating “Pensioners “ with contempt. No respect.
I’m on a basic pension, but don’t get pension credit. I live alone and I’m not a wealthy pensioner. I will miss this help with my bills this winter. And I voted for them! 😔
We were all duped by Keir Starmer to get in with false hopes
@@FionaJohnston-t2h Yes, and to make it worse the leader of the Scottish Labour Party’s slogan was “No Austerity” !! 😧
She is so wrong and she will see this soon when pensioners start to die The guilt will be with her and the PM
In subcontinent Asians countries when the nation people don't like the reforms set by their ministers they use the 'assassination' formula. And the people are successful in their lives after that.

My winter fuel allowance was cut.! I was told all Mediterranean countries where cut! Where I live i
Spain the winters are freezing living on a fixed income
Reeves just before cancelling the heating allowance for pensioners claimed thousand of £s for her heating bill. Shows how hypocritical the government is. I wonder what Starmer says when the first pensioner passes away as she has no heating or hot food.
So all the money we paid in over years was for nothing. We have never claimed a thing. I heard it’s very difficult to claim anything.
Asylum seekers(illegal economic migrants )are paid £40 pw, reported cost £40k p.a., £400k over their life.(= 7/100/1,000 equivalent £300 pensioners fuel allowance). The UK pension = less than 29% of min wage the lowest in Europe including Ireland. The best is 90% !!
You cannot defend the indefensible - train driver on £65,000 a year gets £10,000 pay rise, pensioners on less than £20,000 gets £300 fuel allowance one off payment per winter stopped - unions rule as always with liebour!!!!!
The north is colder than the south fact. Rachel Reeves is a Labour MP for Leeds West although she is never ever seen. My friend has been trying to get an apointmen to see her since last October. Maybe, people should question her commitment to her constituencys. Does she hold a face to face? How many times is sheen in the area? How long does it take for her office to answer e-mails? How come she is getting off scott free when people shout at Farage . My friend says she is and has been an awful MP and does absolutley for Leeds West. Ask about her acheivements for making Leeds West better?
Does Rachel Reeves get fuel allowance? I'm sure she earns more than the average Joe Blogs
they all do and it,s a lot more than £300 a year.
@@tonywesley2657
£3.400 for their second homes.
No hypocrisy at all.
She can't manage on £ 7.000 a month she wants a rise ? ?
She GETS more ,,but don't earn it
She claimed £3000 on expenses to pay her fuel bill as she made the hard decision to cut all expenses for MPs' fuel ills on their second homes.
Labour OUT
Close the border to boat and lorry economic migrants, saving billions. Stop giving money away to funding union demands and cur the Foreign Aid budget to 10%. In Rachel Reeves own words, "If we can't afford it, we can't do it". Pensioners have paid into the system most of their working lives. On and during their retirement, they should be rewarded and provided for.
50k per year each unwanted unskilled immigrant per year in accommodation and living allowances and yet a pensioner with just 13k per year loses winter fuel allowance 😢 where are the government priorities gone so wrong
Stop all heating in the Palace of Westminster and cancel all M Ps heating allowance !
Britain must STOP being so generous that is the attraction! Money for the hotel, phones, food et c what an attraction for people with nothing! Stop giving money!!!!!!!
8 pound a week is generous is it that's all immigrants get a week ..
Who stole billions ohhh yeah the king and the rich establishment stole our money they say point your finger to poor people disabled people and unemployed people it's their fault they say to you in their daily owned media like the daily mail sun express in fact 99%of media do the rich man's bidding
She won’t care
It our money we paid over many years of work why should we be means tested on that
The amount saved 1.5 billion pounds, is apparently little more than `peanuts` in the broader scheme of things. It almost seems that the pensioners are being `targeted` for some reason. I do hope it is nothing to do with the demographics of voting, because that would mean that the promise from the new PM "I am here to serve all of you` would just be `hot air`, and amount to public scorn being poured on any statement of assurance made in the future.
Shame on them all
Rachel Reeves has taken over Pudsey in the boundry changes. The previuos MP was seen at church, at local events at local shops. NO ONE HAS SEEN RACHEL REEVES in Leeds West. What does this tell you about her character. She is a Londoner after all.
Note the one in custody is NOT named nor his Ethnic group, make you think
Ok for her to take £4,400 to pay for her fuel costs,that just shows what sort of people they are,earning what they earn,yet tax payer has to pay for there fuel costs,dont worry bout those millions wasted on hotel bills,yet they still do nothing about the small boats
The parents would just tell you to f off probably- they want the best for their little feral killers, the same as any parent would. They should never leave custody / prison.
If that same man had been reported for swearing at these boys the police would have been round there before he could sit down! But he complains about being assaulted and the police ignore him! Now he has died due to injuries sustained by being attacked!
I live in a village full of “elderly “ still looking for the one in three pensioners who are millionaires….. we have all known each other for. 50-60 yrs… get real govt. that woman speaks with such spite in her voice. Tell her not to claim her heating allowance.
No sympathy for the migrants at all. I hope this is a lesson for the future, which it won't
The gov have planned this to happen.
Stop falling for the messenger its the gov you should be mad at.
Listening to this woman reminds me of listening to Tony Blair - after a few seconds, nausea sets in. I'll turn off whenever she's talking and hope for a general election before the five years.
This is why i do not live here. Been happening for over 40 years sort it out, put these kids in the army!
Get rid of Stamer now and then Cooper now and then Rayner
My wife and i are in our ,80 we ate neing bullied buy next door Nabour we reported this to the police six months ago they gave us a crime number and told us some one would ring us in with two weeks we still haven't been contacted what do we do next ?
Some pensioners have only £169 per week.
Too many stuck on their 'phones and not teaching, keeping track of their children.😱
If found guilty send them to jail for a very long time
900 is 17 per week reeves heating costs lot more than that. Can you heat your house for 17.00 per week in winter no you can't.
Actually you get heating costs paid for so you don't have any costs. It's an utter disgrace what you reeves disgusting
It cost me £50 per week last winter at the coldest
She isn’t going to give up her winter fuel allowance for her second home is she, typical labour, shameless
Labour said that they would bring the country together, LEFT, RIGHT AND CENTRE are against them.....but remember, the adults are in charge now lol
Always thought Rachel Reeves has a cruel face similar to Priti Patel
You Labour councillors take a pay cut.
WFP should be based on £1 below the minimum living wage (£24.999) thus saving money from those pensioners Like King Charles III, all millionairs, MP's and the more well off
The fairest way to cut it off is to say that only lower rate taxpayers should receive it.
Just listening to some guy although sideline with pensioners just made a statement about 35 years paying stamps does he not know we started at fifteen and retired at sixty five that’s 15 years he’s not counting
How about having a compulsory downsizing of MP's second homes to no frills, modest sized and basic. No? Mmmm I thought not!
What happened to the windfall tax on the Oil & Gas conglomerates ? 🤔🤔
That went to the Railway unions
Disgusting! Pensioners loosin the fuel allowance 😢
Well she would not care as her salary will be more than ample and still get a fuel allowance don't worry about us we can put on more jumpers thanks alot for nothing
Defends it while putting in for her own energy allowance of £3,400 ten times more than a pensioner gets
Winter fuel payments have only been cut for wealthy pensioners that can afford to pay. The pension is going up £400 a year so this will alleviate it. And the Tories planned to cut the payments for ALL if they got in. So, moving on....
Reeves can’t defend the winter fuel cut.
Can she defend the 22.3% pay rise for junior doctors?
45% tax and 8% NI
So 53% goes to HMRC so 53p and 47p pay rise to every pound.
🤔It was only around 10 days or so ago, that I watched the PM giving a speech, and saying that energy companies were declaring exceptional enormous profits, and was talking about a "windfall-tax" being applied! ... Supposedly the Gov. is unable to apply a 'cap' on the amount of profits being made, but surely this "windfall-tax" should go towards the pensioner's allowances?
I have no time for Labour the winter fuel allowance had to be reformed,
How many rich pensioners were getting £200?
The pensioners who need it will still get it,
It’s £3:84 a week or 0.54p a day.
I don’t like what they have done but the richer pensions are not going to just hand it back,
They will just bank it.
Just my opinion.
Rich pensioners are a very small proportion. People who only just do not qualify are going to suffer the most. My husband and I got £100.00 each and as the person who pays the bills, that barely covered half of one month's dual fuel bill.
Regrettably, properly thinking things through isn't proving to be this government's strong point.
