Winter Fuel Payment 16:22 - May 24 with 1949 viewsonceablue

So Keir Starmer looks like he is going to reverse his decision on this

His excuse - apparently now the country can afford it.

Nothing to do with getting your arse kicked in the recent elections

This man has lost all integrity and credibility

If you believe that fossil furl countries are going to disappear then you are disillusioned. There's far to much riding on it. Whilst I'm no Trump fan one of the first things when he got into office was "Drill baby,drill"
When you talk about a cleaner environment do you realise that the Uk produces 1% of greenhouse gases. China is building ten new coal fired power stations per year.
The current system we have in the UK for producing electricity is on a knife edge and there's nowhere near enough charging stations to support everyone having an EV.
The cost of an EV puts many off buying them and whose to say how long a second hand one will last and no you can't say that about a petrol or diesel car. If they are maintained they will last years.
Also I am not saying nurses shouldn't have a decent pay increase, but the same doesn't apply to train drivers on £60,000 a year.
Whilst you are on about the Triple Lock, Labour gave me a £400 increase on my O.A.P. but I lost the £200 Winter fuel payment and also am getting taxed another £250 this year due to the personal allowance staying at £12,570. Many pensioners are now being taxed if they get a small pension on top of the State pension.
I also have no problem with people from war torn countries coming here. But boatloads of young men wearing trainers, baseball caps and have mobile phones in their hands getting many things that people who were born and bred here isn't right.

The UK has reduced its emissions, in part, by outsourcing manufacturing to other countries such as China. We have one of this highest levels of imported emissions in the world (ranked 11th, higher than any other large economy).

The electrical grid is not 'on a knife edge'. The lunatic right-wing press has been predicting blackouts due to the increase in renewable power for at least 15 years.

Do you really think that people from war-torn countries don't have trainers, baseball caps and mobile phones?

Well do you really think that ALL those on the boats are from ‘war torn’ countries as the lunatic left wing press insists? As for the phone bit as the majority toss theirs (and any ID) over the side into the water so we don’t know who they are I dare say they arrive without one!

Has the press ever suggested they are all from war-torn countries?

Also, who are the lunatic left-wing press?
