Labour — Poole

Speaking in the House of Commons on 16 December 2024

Debate

Inflation: Pensioner Living Standards

Contribution

The poorest pensioners in our society are those who are eligible for pension credit but do not claim it, and those who are just a few pounds above the threshold and miss out on passported support. Means-testing, by its very nature, is simply not the best way to get help to those who need it most, so will the Minister reconsider the recent decision to means-test the winter fuel allowance?
