Winter Fuel payments Cut

Winter Fuel Allowance for pensioners has been cut between 50 and 100 pounds depending on age. Apparently this news was not announced by George Osborne the Chancellor in his statement but buried in the Budget papers.

This is pretty shabby treatment for our pensioners but should we expect anything else from this Government?

Benefit Awareness month will last throughout April and will hopefully help people who don't claim benefit.
