Good news. The full 'new' state pension is to rise £460 a year next year due to the triple lock. That is a real rise of about £200 above inflation. Yet there are 2 things I'd point out in the context of the debate about the winter fuel payment. 1. That starts next April. This

Important video. Peter Stefanovic is bang on. You CANNOT responsibly debate a cut to winter fuel payments without any impact assessment… …especially given Labour’s own analysis in 2017, saying 4,000 pensioners could die under means-tested allowance.

Graeme Hinde Well I'm also campaigning about standing charges, lack of competition, smart meter breakage, lack of a social tariff and far more on energy as well. Look at my feed for all that too. Yet this is a treasury issue, that is with dep for energy (and this is the immediate one)

A key point missing in a lot of post debate analysis is that Trump’s claim about immigrants eating pets almost perfectly syncs up to the piano in the Peanuts theme song.

Wealthy pensioners do not need a winter fuel allowance. But Starmer’s policy doesn’t only target the “wealthy”. Only pensioners on benefits/credits will be eligible for support. Given how dismal the U.K. state pension is, this leaves thousands of pensioners cold this winter. 1/2

Like it or not: Germany’s energy system is fully operational, with more than 50% renewables. And we are shutting down – not building – coal & nuclear plants. Coal will be off the grid by 2038 at the latest. PS: We also don’t eat cats and dogs. #Debate2024
