Winter Fuel Allowance Petition by Age UK

Maximonkey profile image
24 Replies

Please, could everyone on the site go to the Age UK site and sign their petition to the Government regarding the Winter Fuel Allowance being withdrawn. They are going to Downing Street in February and want as many names as possible to support this petition. The elderly and sick in our society who are not now getting the allowance are really suffering. Many are sitting in their homes unable to heat them properly. As we Lungees know we need heat to keep well breathing in cold air is really harmful. So even if you do not need this allowance, if you have friends or family who do need it, please sign this petition. Our weather is changing and as we all know people are in real need now, so do a good turn and sign this petition please.

My husband and I are not entitled to any benefits.. because we chose to save our money and own our own house.This I don't think is fair as there are some who have never worked a day in their lives living off the. Government etc. Claiming every benefit possible..

It's the Government's fault for allowing this and not doing necessary checks.. Without us tax Payers there would be no benefits.

I was in the dentists listening to a perfectly healthy looking married couple bragging about how many times they go abroad on holiday. .per year. They were in their 50's. The husband was filling his wife's form for. The dentist. Their treatment free as on all these benefits ,didn't work etc.

Myself at 80yrs old pay in full for my dentist work.. also glasses etc.

The dentist was annoyed as I was there with my tank of oxygen struggling and they thought it great to brag about their lifestyle.disgusting

At least I have my pride and proud of my husband and myself who don't have to rely on. Handouts

I really feel for the Pensioners suffering in this cold weather my heart goes out to them.

I see many out and about deciding jobs they don't want to take. Bragging about going swimming out for lunch etc, receiving housing allowance when they should have their benefits stopped, that would give them a wake up call instead of taking and not giving anything back xx.Sheila I will sign now 👍

Done but I have to say I had to Google for it! Couldn’t find it on Ageuk website. It needs to be obvious if they want to get votes. Otherwise people may give up looking!!
