It turns out the Government's Indifference, if not Outright Hostility, to Pensioners Knows No Bounds. FIRST, They Took Away Winter Fuel Payments for millions for people and now it seems that they are prepared to see countless numbers of old people as a result of they Political Choice.
The Campaign Group Silver Voices have been raising the alarm for some time now that because of the frozen tax person allowance the new status pension may be braches the current persons allowance as an early. Year. This would mean we mean end up in an absurd scenario where the basic status pension, which has already been paid for Through National Insurance and Tax, Would end to be to be taxed again. Despite writting to the government and collecting over 115,000 signatures on their petition, silver voices have not even the courtesy of an acknowledgement or a single reply to one of the they.
The Campaign Group Take this as a sign that the Labor Government just just can be too bothered to consider the impacts of being taxed, even those that impacts a fifth of the uk population.
However, I think it is worse than that.
This is just about a campaign group not receiving a reply to some correspondence, it is a much degree than that.
This is an example of the hostile environment that the Labour Government is creating for pensioners, making it as different for them to enjoy a good quality of life.
Those who worked their entries live, pay into the system and played by the rules throughout their entready worked lives with the indignity of their winter fuel allowan.
Being taxed on their basis status address address Further insult to that serious ingestion.
What's even worse is that when the government is searched to see this happen to the pensioners, they are also happy to pay for hotel accommodation for illegal immigrants Per year.
This is not fair at all. Britain is broken.
Unlike labor, reform uk mps voted to keep the winter fuel allowing and will always stand up for pensioners.
We cannot and simply will not let lesser away without taking even money away from the most vulnerable.
Next weektors Across the counter has the opposite to see a clear message to Labour that they will not put up with this.
