Yes just seen that now.

You need to keep up Herc.
People will think that you're losing it.
You've got a bloody cheek!! You never made any comment about MY post, so YOU are the one that needs to keep up FFS. What the f**k has "on a post ages ago" got to do with my post - NOTHING
Talk about hypocrisy re losing it. What absolute bollocks from you again

No. I didn't make a comment about your post - which was about Winter Fuel Payments.
I had already made a comment about them - so didn't see the need to repeat it.
Buy, to save you scrolling back. here they are again.
... badly timed, always going to be unpopular (but the right thing to do, IMHO) cut to Winter Fuel Payments.
And the point to my post was not whether you had posted an opinion, but that you hadn't come back to me on my wind up:
Lazz and Co are noticeable by their silence to my post
And as for:
(but the right thing to do, IMHO) cut to Winter Fuel Payments
Well at least you are H about it, and of course we would all feel that way if we didn't need the money, so thanks for that
Definitely Labour is not working - already!!
Hmmm... you didn't vote for anyone, did you?
If the country is trillions of pounds in debt it cannot give billions away to those who don't desperately need it
Those that are desperate will obviously still get it
My parents are pensioners and have been getting these payments and frankly they don't need it
Labour is always accused of bankrupting the country by spending money that isn't available- they are doing the responsible thing now and still get criticised

Nope, and yet again, I do not see why that is relevant.
Whatever bastards are sitting in their ivory towers, I have paid my dues for many years and feel I am owed - or do you think the train drivers have a better case and need looking after

Natch, and there was me thinking they were for the working man. Well, clearly the working man who is on £70 grand a year is a more needy case, so they don't mind bankrupting the country for them, which is VERY noticeable you don't speak out against - selective posting, yet again.

Unless it's China or India of course. Or train drivers.
Pensioners just got a 10% pension rise
Quit complaining!

KOFF! And I have every right to complain. 10% against being pushed by the unions to pay more money to already overpaid train drivers - you have a bloody weird sense of fairness and justice, but of course, the shoe is on the other foot now and you are struggling to defend your precious left wing with its so called ideals - just one f**king great joke
Herc, will you be unhealthily cold this winter without the WFA?
Because that's who it should be for.
There's an argument for slightly raising the threshold due to the lifting of the fuel cap - but essentially this was always meant for those at risk.
Probably not, but I suppose in your eyes, who is a person who clearly does not need it being a champagne socialist, can see no wrong in denying working people the £300 to pay (£ insert whatever obscene figure you like) to the train drivers.

Nope not at all
I just don't think greedy old sods who can easily afford to pay their bills should get free hand outs from the government , especially when the new government has inherited an economy that's in the worst state since the war
If you're struggling- buy a cardigan 😆😋

Stop being a dick, Herc.
And the train drivers are working people.
