Winter fuel allowance

[ajohn]

So what do you call people born 1945 to 1959?

I don't much care what you call them. A post war spike is pretty normal as you can see from this

They are putting windfall tax on energy companies, they are big business

They are tightening regulations on water companies, they are big business

They are not the big businesses who are paying next to nothing ,you know the ones they said if they tax them it will solve all our problems . And by hitting energy companies it could very well back fire on the billions of investments in renewabls etc

 

[gas112]

Let's hope they do then.

But whilst that happens, what do you suggest ? Pay more tax ?

While it happens . They brought the winter fuel allowance in within days what's stopping them doing same with taxing big business paying next to nothing after all they have had 14 years to plan it as opposed to the days it took to plan the winter allowance cut

Killing pensioners is never the answer

But killing children is the answer?

 

[Notch7]

you know the ones they said if they tax them it will solve all our problems

Who said that?
Which companies are we talking about?

Rubbish

BP and Shell have said they are making so much money they don’t know what to do with it……mind you I wonder which fossil fuel businesses are chucking money towards Reform

Labour said it. The companies Labour said they would tax or did they make it up...

Still investing billions in renewables though aren't they and they are global companies making a fortune outside of the uk

Just had this sent to me by my mum! (She definitely doesn’t need the winter payment) but she knows others that do but won’t be getting it.

Yes Tories killed thousands by seeding care homes with covid

“official figures released earlier this month showed that almost 30,000 more care home residents in England and Wales died during the coronavirus outbreak than during the same period in 2019. Two-thirds were directly attributable to Covid-19, reports the Office of National Statistics”


And whilst people were saying goodbye to their loved ones on FaceTime, Tories were in No10 getting pizzed on suitcases of booze

No they didnt

Stop spouting undiluted twaddle

Labours windfall tax is going to be used for British energy…..development of renewables

And you don't think the likes of centrica ,national grid etc are already investing in UK renewabls and cleaner technology

Tories refused to use local labs and NHS system for testing….because they wanted to wait for their lighthouse private labs so they and their mates could make loads of money

Tories refused to allow businesses experienced in the procurement of PPE, instead they used businesses with zero experience to provide them with useless PPE

Both things impacted people in care homes….caused by Tory greed

Please name the companies you have in mind.
