Reform UK — Fareham and Waterlooville

Speaking in the House of Commons on 19 March 2025

Debate

Winter Fuel Payment

Contribution

In my constituency, even after taking into account pension credit, 20,000 pensioners will lose out from the Government’s cuts. Maggie from Waterlooville wrote to me to say: “We have cut back on heating, we are both in our seventies and we both feel the cold.” How on earth does the Minister justify that as a responsible choice? How on earth will forcing pensioners into pneumonia or influenza help the NHS? How on earth can the Minister come here and justify treating hard-working pensioners with such disdain?
