Winter fuel payments cut makes sense, Starmer says
- Keir Starmer stated that changes to Winter Fuel Payments are necessary to protect pensioners who need the allowance, noting that many recipients are relatively wealthy.
- He emphasized that allowing payments to everyone does not make sense given tight budgets for public services like the NHS and schools.
- The Treasury reported that the changes would reduce the number of pensioners receiving payments from 11.4 million to 1.5 million, leaving nearly 10 million without support.
