He hasn’t taken any money from ‘defenseless vulnerable pensioners’, the winter fuel allowance is now means tested.
Former and now retired colleagues of mine retired on pensions that put them in the 40% tax bracket will no longer get the winter fuel allowance, I expect t they are gutted.
All pensioners will still receive triple locked increases to their state pension, a guaranteed annual increase most working people can only dream of.
I do however look forward to the budget.
