“We Could See A Labour Government U-Turn” Starmer DEFENDS Winter Fuel Payment Cut In Commons
Sir Keir Starmer faced shouts of “shame” in the House of Commons as he defended moves to cut winter fuel payments for millions of pensioners.
Conservative Party leader Rishi Sunak asked why the Prime Minister had decided to boost the pay of train drivers earning £65,000 a year while a pensioner living on £13,000 annually would lose their winter fuel payment.
Sir Keir said “no prime minister wants to do what we have to do” as he argued the “tough decision” was required to “stabilise our economy”.
