The damning document https://t.co/4SDj6a6zq0 that shows the govt knew
* 1.6m disabled pensioners would lose winter fuel payment
* 780,000 of the poorest pensioners who were entitled still would not get it - so ‘protecting the poorest’ was a lie
* 2.7m over-80s would lose £300

Want to see how the land is stripped from the chalk base? A little look at Shottendane. This just for 250 houses.

@Keir_Starmer Really? Maybe stop tenancy loss & CPO’s for farms facing build build build on our best 1% of food producing farmland. Losing 15% ( 7 sq km ) in our small district of Thanet for 17100 houses in an area with negative population growth is utter madness.

@Keir_Starmer Good, we look forward to you rejecting the planning application for 3600 houses in Thanet which are planning applications to build over the countries best farmland.

Labour MPs sending letters to their constituents about voting to meanstest the Winter Fuel Payment. But even though they voted for the Winter Fuel Payment Regulations they call it the winter fuel allowance!

@OurWestgate @SirRogerGale @CommunityPlann1 @IsleThanetNews @Coastman2020 @JacquiBee1920 @ThanetLass @RosieP4 Maybe if a correction of house prices would help, affordability has the highest increase 2000-2008, remember the financial crash in 2008?

Winter Fuel U Turn Alert!!

[Paul Lewis @paullewismoney]

Labour said in 2017 linking Winter Fuel Payment to pension credit would cost 4000 lives https://t.co/gjI91K5Gzy as its plans to take it from 10m pensioners face 2 parliamentary challenges - Commons Tuesday, Lords Wednesday. Both set to fail but pressure from unions is growing
