The same criteria could be used that applies to other benefits Margaret, I sure as hell think that people who are well of, or are living abroad shouldn't receive winter fuel allowance, I know of somebody who moved to the states a few years ago, but they still get this payment through a address of a relative in England, its totally wrong in my eyes

Re: Cold Winter Fuel Payments for Pensioners to be cut
 

I would not apply for something that I did not need.......also inertia accounts for a lot...sometimes if folk have to do something to obtain a benefit they don't go to the trouble. Yes Cashy, I know there are folk that have much and seem to go through life with a closed fist.....they must be really sad people.

Re: Cold Winter Fuel Payments for Pensioners to be cut
 

Quite agree Margaret, and unfortunately they don't all have a blue rosette pinned on their jacket as cashy seems to imply;)

Re: Cold Winter Fuel Payments for Pensioners to be cut
 

If it's not pinned on their jackets, it's probably tattooed on thier asses.:D

Re: Cold Winter Fuel Payments for Pensioners to be cut
 

Bloody Hell Eric....if our coffin dodgers got cold weather payments plus top up depending on severity( based on the Canadian winter) they'd all be getting about 30K a year.

Re: Cold Winter Fuel Payments for Pensioners to be cut
 

There's a big difference between cashy and me and politicians Margaret, we actually get on very well it just appears we're always at loggerheads :D
