So the new Government think it is a good idea to release criminals early, and they are going to house these people in Hotels at the taxpayers expense.
This on the same day that they vote to end the Winter Fuel Allowance for pensioners. Oh yes, at a time when power costs are going up.
But Never mind eh, the ‘wealthy pensioners’ will get an average £490 uplift to their pensions in APRIL. (When Winter is, or should be, over….some won’t get this because they will be dead)
It appears that crime does pay.
Those who come here in boats, who have given nothing to this country can be supported, despite the so called 22 billion quid black hole.
Those who have committed crimes…domestic abuse, burglary, drug dealing etc, are also more highly respected by this government.
They will be warm and well fed this winter.
They will not have to be concerned about whether they should eat or heat a room in their home.

It seems that it is ok for MPs to claim almost three and a half thousand quid to. Heat their homes….and they get 91 grand a year, plus perks…expenses subsidised food and drinks, travel. So none of them need to worry about whether to heat or eat.
They trumpet on about pension credit but the forms to claim this are complex and I believe that they have to be done online.
Many of the old people have no access to facilities that allow them to do this.
Labour…the party of the working man? I don’t think so!
