Remember who said means-testing Winter Fuel Payments would be "biggest attack on pensioners"?

Do remember who said that means testing Winter Fuel payments would be the “single biggest attack on pensioners in a generation in our country”.

I can't blame you if you've forgotten, since Sir Keir Starmer and Rachel Reeves apparently have too.

Well, it wasn't the Conservatives, or the "right-wing press" or any of the other people the Labour party like to blame for everything.

It was the Labour party themselves in a report published in 2017 when they were in opposition. The same report also suggested that means-testing this benefit could cause an extra 3,850 deaths among pensioners in that year alone as you can read for yourself by clicking on the link below
