Unite applies to High Court for Winter Fuel Judicial Review: Sharon Graham BBC News

[@davidcarroll5686]

They can't justify it !!!!!!

[@scottsmith1413]

Well done and thank you.

[@RobertWoodbine]

Well done Sharon a true labour party member and union leader the only one to stand up for pensioners

[@randyallman4843]

I was a labour voter in the last general election, but the new Labour government turned against the pensioners axing the winter fuel payment and the cost of living payment, which i was totally shocked that a Labour government could do such a callous act. I'm a pensioner myself and truthfully i was better off under a conservative government. Also the new Labour government have not kept to their manifesto promise, therefore if Keir Starmer doesn't resign or is not removed from office as the Labour leader and prime minister the Labour party will become a dinosaur at the next general election.

I am one of the pensioners denied the winter fuel allowance after 55years full time work, not a burden on the NHS. I received Ten Pounds yesterday from the DWP, I am disgusted they are laughing at us.

How did you not see how bad these people would be though? Yes, ok, they're worse than most thought theyd be, but it was obvious they're be a disaster without the extra unexpected layer of bad - what we could see was enough to not vote for them! It amazes me that nobody looked into his history and background before voting for him!

All Unions should back this on behalf of their members now retired.

Longer lifespan and more efficient than a heat pump and actually heat your home .

The bent Judiciary will side with their masters. Time we made people’s Courts to decide on stuff like this.

[@Dana-ml7sy]

Winter is here already!

[@davidsmith8728]

Labour talk about having to make difficult decision - they have chanted this matra since the election. However, how difficult will it be for pensioners to make a decision between heeating their house or buying food?

PISSIN..ON.THE..WIND

[@StevenKeery]

Well done Sharon Graham and Unite. I hope you are successful and other Unions join you. This Labour Government is not for the Working Class.

[@davidnichols1413]

Discrimination !

[@superleeds70johnm21]

Was throwing money at the unions a difficult decision? Was chucking money abroad a difficult decision? I haven't heard those excuses, anybody else?

[@patriciadrury8557]

So disgusted with this government time king Charles please step in these old age pensioners need your help and our veterans also they fought for us

[@patriciapalmer8824]

About time the 2 tier pension rate was sorted there is over £50 a WEEK difference we all have paid in for over 35 years

[@angelastephenson1395]

Thankyou for at least trying. Good luck with this Bless you ( keep warm ❤😊)

[@annealognon7262]

Not everyone can get that £150 warm home, I certainly can't because I have to live in a van due to losing self employment through breaking my hip and no one will help with housing me either at 66 years of age it's disgusting behaviour from local council and government they should look after those who have paid in all their lives but they don't. Hope the money is won at least I will get that if nowt else.

[@mikehawk9156]
