Rachel Reeves claimed £3,700 of taxpayer cash towards her energy bills over five years before axing winter fuel payments for millions of pensioners, Telegraph analysis reveals.
The Chancellor and other Labour MPs spent more than £400,000 of taxpayer money heating their own homes over the past five years, with some claiming thousands a year https://www.msn.com/en-gb/money/othe...5e3c2430&ei=13 more than a typical household spends.

Even the Unions are startled, just heard some Union boss on the radio saying alarm bells are ringing as Starmer said he would be a friend to pensioners just weeks before he was elected
I can only imagine what the budget will throw up...

I can't recall when I last agreed with near everything all the Conservative MPs said in parliament today.
It's shameful of the government as to this move |

I'm stunned.
I really hoped for this to be paused until next year until as many as all who should have pension credit were then on it. However hoping too for it to be widened as to it's starting point. It's really not a good look at all. |

They're just a concerned government, upset with what has been happening in communities.

All the pensioners should turn the heating up full blast this winter and send the energy bills to Reeves and Starmer!

What is even more startling is the winter fuel reduction will only affect England and Wales so they were effectively voting to freeze pensioners in other parts of the UK, not their own.....Labour

Keir Starmer has declared more free tickets and gifts than other major party leaders in recent times, with his total now topping £100,000 after recent support for his lifestyle from Labour donor Waheed Alli.
The prime minister has accepted almost 40 sets of free tickets during his time as Labour leader, mostly to football matches but also £4,000 of hospitality at a Taylor Swift concert and £698 of Coldplay tickets in Manchester. He was criticised this week for the scale of gifts given to him by Lord Alli, who paid for work clothing worth £12,000, accommodation valued at more than £20,000 and glasses valued at £2,485 – especially since the donor was temporarily given a pass to No 10 after the election. Angela Eagle, a minister, struggled to defend the prime minister’s decision to accept so many freebies when pressed on Times Radio on Tuesday. Asked why he shouldn’t buy his own glasses, given his salary, Eagle said: “I’m afraid I’m not responsible for decisions the prime minister makes.” She added: “The prime minister has had his say on that … next time you interview him, you could ask him yourself. I don’t have an opinion.” Starmer’s acceptance of freebies raised eyebrows after the FT reported during the election he had taken £76,000 worth of hospitality and gifts. Since then, he has declared another £4,000 in Taylor Swift tickets and £20,000 of accommodation from Alli. This was mostly provided during the election campaign but also continued one week after he had become prime minister until 13 July. The Labour party declined to answer when pressed on whether Alli had funded Starmer’s hotel accommodation during the election or loaned one of his own properties as a base. Starmer has previously insisted his acceptance of hospitality is related to his security requirements of not being able to go into the stands, saying: “If I don’t accept a gift of hospitality, I can’t go to a game. You could say: ‘Well, bad luck.’ That’s why gifts have to be registered. But, you know, never going to an Arsenal game again because I can’t accept hospitality is pushing it a bit far.” Other previous major party leaders have not declared so many free tickets and hospitality. During his time as opposition party leader, David Cameron declared one set of Rugby World Cup tickets, and being hosted at the Conservative party’s Black and White ball, along with various gifts of hampers and other treats. He also registered £4,475 of discounted personal training sessions. Maybe he should have donated all the freebies to the black hole ? I think Starmer and his grasping Mrs are going to be more unpopular than Thatcher by the time they leave Downing Street at this rate
