Sods law here, just reached the age at which I qualify for the winter allowance that many mates have had for years, and Starmer has cancelled it!:swear:
I really do feel for those pensioners that don't qualify for Universal or pension credit, by being £2.20 a week over the income allowance, and there are millions like them.
I hope they all have to sit arround in the labour Cabinet Office, with no heating on, sat in their scarves & anoraks, maybe they might get a feel of what some are having to suffer this winter in their own homes, especially the disabled ones.
LES
Those who missed out on pension credit by a couple of quid are the ones who will suffer. I hope Starmer's insiders can convince him that this a massive mistake. I read some of his own cabinet are complaining. Cut back on Foreign aid not our pensioners🤬

It’s dropped to almost 20º here, even rained for a couple of mins last night. Needed the cooler air though after 6wks of 25 - 29º, the locals call it summer🤷‍♂️

MiL bungalow's heating is set to 30 degrees all year. I opened the door for some fresh air the other day and she complained. I have to go out to the motorhome to cool down.

I've had the heating pump going all afternoon, it's off now the rain has stopped. I've resisted putting the central heating on but I have to go in the office tomorrow, if it's cold I will have no choice

Well yesterday I put on a thermal vest !! This morning I swept the chimney ready for the wood burner. !!
Now it's nearly 9pm and I'm still sat outside in a t shirt :doh:

Cheers.
