Labour has slashed the Winter Fuel Payments for pensioners across the country

Pensioners across the UK are voicing their anger over the recent decision to means-test the winter fuel payment.

The move has left approximately 10 million elderly individuals without this crucial support.

Pensioners have expressed their outrage over the winter fuel payment changes.

Lynn, a pensioner, told Patrick Christys: "I think it's absolutely shocking and disgraceful the way the government's treating the old people."

She criticised politicians for having heating payments for second homes while elderly people suffer.

Casper, who worked in social housing, shared heartbreaking experiences: "We used to go in there to be all pensioners sitting there wrapped up, blankets on, no heating on, house damp 'cause they couldn't put the air heating on."
