A lot to wait and see if it is, plus what the new thinking is.

However whatever it is, a U turn, or change of heart or at last realisation that it was an obnoxious thing to even think of let alone do.
Or more it's because of likely the messaging from voters in the recent local elections.
Because Ms Reeves has always dismissed those in the party who always complained about this policy.

I'll however happily welcome the alteration to reverse it.

Although I personally still do not think that winter fuel payment should have ever been paid to ALL of pension age.
Millionaires and billionaires certainly don't need it and should never have got it.

U-turn or whatever, just change it, that's the right and good thing to do.

More than likely leaked by Reeves. They are all jostling for position as there will be a leadership challenge, probably in July 2026.

They're all truly horrible people.

Martin Lewis suggested a way of means testing that would tie in with Council tax so winter fuel to be paid to those in properties A to D that said not sure how they would send winter fuel allowance to those living abroad under that measure
