Millions of pensioners on or just above the poverty line will lose winter fuel allowance - Age UK research
The government’s refusal to publish a proper impact study of exactly who will be the worst off from the abolition of the winter fuel allowance for 10.8 million pensioners was one of the worst acts of this new Labour government.
