Our very own Fatima Iftikhar shares her thoughts on the cruel realities of scrapping the Winter Fuel Payment tinyurl.com/2xeuapfr Warm This Winter #winterfuelpayment

A little bit of GOOD NEWS 🥳 With £1.5 billion in funding, 131 new projects, including windfarms, solar farms, and tidal power will help work towards making Britain a clean-energy superpower. A step in the right direction.

‘Stabilise the economy.’ ‘A run on the pound.’ Don’t be fooled by the narrative Cutting the #WinterFuelPayment is a false economy Millions will have to decide between heating & eating. Billions more will be spent on poor health as a result of the cut bbc.com/news/articles/…

Reversing these cuts to universal Winter Fuel Payments MUST be reconsidered.

Ministers are wrong to say energy bills are decreasing for everyone this winter. For some pensioners, energy bills will be the highest they have ever had to deal with in real terms. This is solely due to the Chancellor's winter fuel payment axe. endfuelpoverty.org.uk/energy-bills-u…

There are always choices to be made. It's clear that the choice to scrap Winter Fuel Payments at such short notice carries a real risk to millions of vulnerable pensioners.

Parliamentarians and ministers should examine their conscience and the deluge of correspondence they have had on the Winter Fuel Payment axe. The Government must now back ways to mitigate the pain of the cut to vulnerable older people. endfuelpoverty.org.uk/mps-back-dange…

BREAKING ⚠️ Cuts to Winter Fuel Payments are set to go ahead after today's Commons vote. The Government must commit to keeping everybody warm this winter. It's time to start talking about emergency energy tariffs and expanding Cold Weather Payments. Time is running out ⏰

"As MPs warm themselves at the public expense, the reality for pensioners will be very different this winter" Simon Francis of End Fuel Poverty Coalition

This is the reality of the situation ⬇️ The cost to the NHS this winter will be monumental, with Age UK estimating it could reach £1.4 BILLION. Cutting the Winter Fuel Payments lifeline will directly result in thousands of unnecessary deaths.

This morning Ed Miliband said all the right things ⬇️ and he's right, this is the roadmap to fixing our broken energy system. But we must see support for those who need it. The government needs to commit to keeping everybody warm this winter.

Judith has got the right idea. It’s time to end energy industry profiteering.

The implications of this decision must not be underestimated ⬇️ Rachel Reeves Keir Starmer Martin Lewis 🔉
