    Nope, I was referring to your specific assertion that pensioners living on not much more than £600 per month have lost out. Are you sticking to that?

    If you get less than £700 a week in total you get WFA.

    all of my mates who earn less than £35,000 who got £500 before now get £200.
    So that’s why I said the £300 was going to this lass on the BBC.

    You said this
    It was restored this year though, it's only pensioners that have an income of more than £35k that don't receive it.

    And I stand by that.

    You said pensioners on not much more than £600 per month are paying to lift the benefit cap, that's just untrue.

    Why would you stand by that when it’s total bollocks,
    Most couples have had £300 taken off their heating allowance, which drops them down to £200
    Do you believe differently?

    Rewind to the start of this exchange. You said a pensioner with a monthly income of not much more than£600 per month was paying for the lifting of the benefit cap. I asked why that is, and you said 'Maybe where the £300 went that got taken off their heating allowance?'.

    It's demonstrably true that a pensioner living on the basic state pension will receive either £200 or £300 this year in WFA depending on their age.

    I really can't help you any further with this. I'm out, off to celebrate our win.

    I hope you know, that nowhere in the scientific section of the ICCC report, the Holy Bible for many, does it assert that there is a climate emergency. Nowhere.

    If Trump and Farage say so it must be right then.

    Climate change deniers must really hate their kid’s because anyone with eyes can see the world is changing. You need to see who funds the people many see happy to follow.

    Good lad and enjoy your night!

    Any pensioner on £35k will die of stupidity not the cold. I wonder what they did before the last labour government brought the WFA in?

    it’s a shame some on the right cared as much for pensioners when Johnson and Hancock were sending them to their unnecessary deaths.

    It is not Trump, or Farage, or any other bogey man. It is the ICCC report itself.

    If you can find the part in the scientific section that asserts that there is a climate emergency, fair enough. Good luck looking. They were very careful not to say so .

    Maybe Japan, and Germany, and China and India and the Phillipines and many others have all been bribed and corrupted by the evil oil and gas and coal producers. Maybe.

    Or maybe, they just want affordable energy for their people and their economies. Maybe they are all wrong. Maybe the UK are the only country that is right.

    Maybe.

    I grew up in a really strong Labour family. I was taught that the Labour Party looked after hard working class people.
    I grew up in the 70s when none us had anything apart from a community that stuck together.
    That's long gone
