COLD STRUGGLE IS JUST INHUMANE

Temperatures have reached below zero in areas across the country.

The cold cruel winter we have been warned about has now fallen on millions of pensioners. Age UK have warned that thousands of pensioners will have to go into debt to adequately heat in their homes.

Labour's response? Health Secretary Wes Streeting has advised broke pensioners to 'layer up and put the heating on'. How does he expect the pensioners to pay, as he sits in a nice warmer office and has he's heating bills at home paid for by the people of this country who put him in power?

Ignoring the fact that Labour's policies mean millions can neither afford the clothes on their back or the heat in their homes. But Starmer is ok because lord Ally will cover his clothes and heating bills l feel sure.

Labour still don't get it. So we need them to reverse this inhumane policy and other they have put in in the last six months, or hold a general election and let the people show there true feeling of the changes that have brought to this country.

Labour are milking the working people of this country to pay there masters, this taking us right back the the 1970 and we will all be a lot worst off in the next five years.

The debt will increase and the pockets of the working people picked, l agree we need change in this country but it them we need to change, before they complete there term in power or l feel will be will become a third world country if we don’t.

We all need to look at the facts, we was not in a good place, but we have now lost all hope, so l say lets push to have a general election and let the people make the choice but also know Starmer and his dictatorship will never do that by choice.
