Pensioners set to freeze thanks to Labour’s fuel aid cuts

If you still need convincing that Two-Tier-Kier’s Labour government isn’t going to be any more compassionate to the average Brit than the exited Tory party, this should make the penny drop.

The chancellor, Rachel Reeves, recently revealed plans to cut the winter fuel allowance for the poorest pensioners from mid-September onwards.

In a supposed bid to help claw back a £22bn deficit in the public purse, the chancellor plans to introduce a means test for the winter fuel payment, where only those on pensions credit would qualify.

This move will block around 10 million pensioners from receiving up to £300 fuel aid.

Amid growing backlash from age charities and other MPs, Ms Reeves defended the plans, stating: ‘The £22 billion blackhole inherited from the previous governments means we are having to take tough decisions now to fix the foundations of our economy – including making the Winter Fuel Payments available to those most at need.”

However, the Homeland Party would argue that tough decisions don’t have to be made. On the contrary, a straightforward fix would be to cut funding where it’s unnecessary. The following are just a few suggestions that can easily and quickly be implemented.

  1. Stop wasting billions of pounds on foreign aid. The government is morally obligated to get its house in order before playing the Good Samaritan overseas. We believe that the homeless and those living in poverty should be given priority.
  2. Stop spending in the region of £8m a day to house illegal migrants. Why can the Government magically conjure up the money to fund their winter bills but not those of our elderly?
  3. Cut all the constant, needless and discriminatory “inclusion” initiatives that permeate all facets of Government influence. Again, this is another example of how the public funds are diverted away from the British people to those without justification.

There are many other possibilities, but clearly, Labour would not entertain them.

The only logical takeaway is that they despise their people and, ironically, the poor and needy. We say “ironically,” of course, because Labour was once considered the party of the working class. Now, like the Tories before them, they are the party of immigrants.

If you’re as outraged as we are about Ms Reeves’ plans and agree with our solutions, why not get involved?

We are the only serious nationalist party in the UK and the only party that puts our people first.
