Responding to the news that 780,000 pensioners in England and Wales are set to lose their Winter Fuel Allowance because they are not expected to apply for the benefits they are entitled to.
Today (Saturday 14th September), Liberal Democrat Chief Whip Wendy Chamberlain MP will open the party’s conference.
Responding to the reports that the Government did not carry out an impact assessment on cutting winter fuel support for millions of pensioners in England and Wales, Liberal Democrat Work and Pensions Spokesperson Wendy Chamberlain MP said:
The Liberal Democrats are committed to transforming maternal and neonatal care and ensuring inclusive care for all, so we can create a safer, more compassionate healthcare system for everyone.
Our market system should balance businesses’ needs and the rights and freedoms of workers.
