The hypocrisy from all her ranting and blather when labour cut the allowance. Honestly labour shouldn’t u-turn. Fine move the eligibility needle abit but keep it means tested like most other benefits
Like she’ll ever have to stand by her commitments. I’ve got more chance of being next PM lol.
What I’m failing to grasp is who are the modern Tories even supposed to represent? Clearly not those that are economically struggling, but equally clearly not those that are not; at least if their luck is tied to a regular albeit high income. Business owners? Not those either, at least not moderate sized local ones.
No, their votes used to come from bribing the pensioner block for years with completely unsustainable policies that they knew would wreck the economy in the long-term. But now that the country’s finances are in the toilet, they can’t even commit to bribing them. So who are they supposed to represent? I think the polls putting them at fourth place suggest exactly this – that no-one else in the country quite knows either.
Wasn’t she asking for a u-turn just the other day (and every other PMQs before that)? God, she really is just opposition for oppositions sake, no principles, just against everything Labour does.
Laughable really. We do need an honest conversation though about what we expect the state to provide and who should pay for it. Seems no political party wants to go there though: because they know it is a vote loser.
They had wanted to do it for years but with changing pms so many times they where to frightened of upsetting their vote base
I mean she might as well , it’s not like she’ll ever have to honour the promise
Why should they get it? If they failed to plan for retirement then they can’t afford to retire and I’m saying that as a grandchild who grandparent receives the winter fuel allowance.
Edit. Instead of downvoting tell my why the deserve it?
Badenoch is the most repellent of creatures. They are the perfect leader for a party devoid of talent – that Chris Philps and Andrew Bowie ever reached shadow cabinet level is astounding.
Why even come out with this? May as well just bullshit as there is pretty much zero accountability in British politics for these kinds of promises
Doesn’t matter what she says. She will never be PM.
So she disagrees with labour and her plan is…to do the same.
Reality is this benefit was a bung for the pensioners. We can’t afford it and I’m getting fed up with disabled people, local services and everything else taking a good kicking whilst people who don’t need it get benefits they believe they are owed. It’s the same selfish generation that have got everything and are now punishing the rest.
I live next to one…he spends it on duty free on his holiday and was in revolt that he was being told no benefits…whilst claiming there’s money for kids and boat people.
All the hyperbole about “Starmer wants to freeze your grandma” for literal months and then turning around like “…so do we to be honest”
Genuinely, what is the point in Kemi Badenoch? I seriously think she’s giving Liz Truss a run for her money in the most inept Tory leader stakes. She’s just remained in post for longer because being this inept in opposition doesn’t crash the economy.
She cant commit to anything anyway because she will never be in power
Baaaahahahahahahahahaha that is utterly and completely insane after all her blathering
Who cares, it’s like £200 extra to a group of people that get pretty generous benefits already, more than most other benefits
