That's it for me. I am now done with being a member of The Labour Party. Listening to the debate and the vote, I feel ashamed and disgusted. I am cancelling my subscription direct debit and resigning my membership. I am just one individual, but Labour is dead for me. Andy MacNae MP

Even Labour ministers have been privately briefing that pensioners are going to die because of this policy. Pensioners will freeze to death in their last lonely moments on earth, because of a policy your faction is imposing on the country. Own it!

Those Labour MPs who abstained on the vote tonight are worse (IMO) than those who voted to go ahead with freezing pensioners this winter. How many times can Paula Barker and Kim Johnson make cowardly excuses? Parliamentary excuses equivalent to “the dog ate my homework”.

About 40 Labour MPs opposed the cut in Winter Fuel Payment so strongly that they, er, abstained when it came to a vote bit.ly/3XdlD2k only one voted against.

Correct. A govt cheque has never bounced - at least not for hundreds of years - and there is no overdraft. It is economically illiterate to say so. They may or may not know how things actually work. But if they don’t they should and if they do they shouldn’t peddle nonsense

Last year Labour’s Darren Jones wrote a letter to Jeremy Hunt warning about cutting the winter fuel allowance “What happened to THAT Darren Jones?” “The difference is the date… the Tories left a £22bn black hole”

All those Labour votes over all their lifetimes, and Liverpool pensioners end up with just one MP on their side. One MP, who had the Labour whip removed within weeks of the election due to his refusal to vote for child poverty.

Six months ago, to the surprise of many, St Johns Market closed down leaving traders shut out. Now, a senior Liverpool councillor has admitted it is “unlikely” the businesses will return as a row over unpaid rent continues liverpoolecho.co.uk/news/liverpool…

The whole point of the Corbyn project was to make sure Blairism, with its conscious and deliberate rejection of socialism, would never return. Now some of those who signed up to it have made their peace with the very thing they purported to detest. We have no words.

51 years ago today, Salvador Allende, the democratically elected president of Chile, was overthrown in a bloody US/UK backed coup. What followed were years of repression and death. This is the story of the other 9/11

It's the final day of what's been a busy Trades Union Congress Conference for our union and delegates. Unite the union: join a union's motion was carried earlier on in the week calling for a #WealthTax of 1% on the top 1% wealthiest in Britain. #TUC2024 ✊

Today, the Renters Rights Bill finally banning no-fault eviction is published. As a result of pressure from our movement, this bill is better than the failed tory bill. But it will still not protect us from the massive rent hikes pushing us out of our homes and communities.

Palestinian ambassador Husam Zomlot addressed the Trades Union Congress today with a powerful reminder of why support for Palestine is the litmus test for anti-racist solidarity.

The likes of this zero charisma drone say they had no choice but to freeze pensioners. Then they have the brass neck to say pensioners who can't afford to heat their homes do it by choice! Despicable.

When Keir Starmer wanted votes he was on the side of pensioners struggling to stay warm in winter. As PM, Starmer is on the side of big business, banks and the super wealthy. The real Keir Starmer is a tory. He has destroyed Labour.
