Gregory Stafford

Conservative — Farnham and Bordon

Speaking in the House of Commons on 19 March 2025

Debate

Winter Fuel Payment

Contribution

There is probably unanimity across the Chamber that Richard Branson does not need the winter fuel payment, but it is the poorest pensioners—those who are earning just above £13,500—who are losing out. Let us not have the nonsense about Richard Branson or people swigging champagne; let us actually talk about the people who are suffering and will be going into hospital because they are cold and may end up dying. Those are the people we should be talking about.
