Pensioners are beginning to receive letters from the Government on the new Winter Fuel Payment rules.

This is going to cause great anxiety for many older people who will struggle without the payment this winter.

Unexpected withdrawal of the Winter Fuel Payment and Ofgem's energy cap increase of 10% will leave many older people like Elaine struggling to get by this winter.

(1/13) We strongly oppose the means-testing of Winter Fuel Payment (WFP) because our initial estimate is that as many as two million pensioners who badly need the money to stay warm this winter will not receive it. Read our full statement:

[Liberal Democrats @LibDems]

We won’t be playing party political games.

It is time for proper, cross-party talks on social care funding, where tough but essential decisions are needed.



We will also make sure that carers cannot be forgotten again by people in power.

[BBC Question Time @bbcquestiontime]

“The previous Conservative government completely lost control of the immigration system and… the asylum system”

Liberal Democrats’ Daisy Cooper says immigrants and asylum seekers have been “scapegoated” and says her party is seeking changes to the social care system

[Sam Carlisle @samcarlisle]

Congratulations on your appointment to the Cabinet, @wesstreeting May I remind you of your promise to my daughter, Elvi. Please don’t leave it ten years, we might not have that long 💜

[Carers UK @CarersUK]

We were delighted to hear @EdwardJDavey speak out about caring through this election campaign.

'We will continue to stand up for a society where we value care and properly support carers because we cannot afford not to.'

Great to see leadership on caring from the LibDem leader.

[Methodist Homes (MHA) @yourMHA]

It's not too late to tell us why you're voting for social care on Thursday - our head of communications @emilyclarebird tells us why she is showing us she cares. #showusyoucare #generalelection #GE2024

@friends_earth Pleased to say it WAS discussed at Winchester's election hustings tonight. It was also mentioned in the top three issues candidates hear on the doorstep

[Luke Buckland @LukeBuckland10]

@IanDunt I felt that the election hustings in Winchester tonight reflected far better than the TV debates. Less polished and scripted, far more respectful. Probably helped tho that the audience was in the hundreds not the millions!

👀 Unusual burst of bets preceded Rishi Sunak’s election announcement...

Analysis of Betfair Exchange data by @ft shows several thousand pounds wagered on the day before Sunak called snap election on May 22, when the odds implied a less than 25% chance of a July poll
