Keir Starmer challenged on winter fuel payments, pension credits and tax 1252pm 19.12.24 in words of your own vernacular, in words that everyone can comprehend: the coffers can't support or dish out such a payout. in short: the country can't fucking afford it!!! granted, 20/20 vision may have served this country and those pension schemes better. but, let's face it, they couldn't fucking afford me, a poxy nobody, so i doubt those women are going to be any better served. why dont you all grow up a tad and let those guys tasked with the job try to put the nation's fiscal issues right. that said, i feel a hysterical notion brewing that whilst such is is going without such and such a people were living the high life.....

He never answers the questions. What a fraud we have in our PM. Most pensioners don't claim the Pension credit because it has to be done on line and they find it difficult to do this as it's a very long form and gets timed out. Plus pensioners are a proud demographic & don't want to see it as scrounging of the Gov.

[@peterbrodie5069]

The government know what pensioners are getting paid so know who is eligible for pension credit and shouldn't have to claim, but making them claim they know lots won't, hence saving even more money.
