@cathygore8577
Fed up listening to her quoting the black hole left by the Conservatives,she is only trying to cover herself for taking the fuel payment from the needy,don’t know how she can sleep at night,worse decision ever 😡she should be ashamed of herself,will never vote Labour again 😡
@tomsoyka4801
Stop the boats
@Bert-hy5ek
Labour ministers keep pretending they knew nothing of the black hole. Perhaps these lying ministers will fall into the hole.
@denniswinters3096
Reeves :- " I'm not bovvered. Do I look bovvered ?"
@oddities-whatnot
Labour – a party for the people. Im sure thats what they used to be.
@Bert-hy5ek
Reeves took away the fuel allowance just before winter. The pension rise will be next April- after the winter. Excellent timing for a hypocritical minister looking after herself.
@DeborahBooth-zv4bp
No she wants she'll claim it on expenses like the rest of the corrupt government do they don't live in the real world
@janfisher3303
Why don't the MPs take a cut in their salaries or expenses….. No that's not on their agenda, so glad that I can get voted for the Green party!!! 😮
@SilverbackMatt01
Labour will pay a heavy price at the polling stations.
@paulharris869
It’s a genius way of freeing up hospital beds
@danielurie4556
Free hotels , free food , free mobile phones , free pre paid credit cards for people who are here illegally and on top of that 11.6 billion given to foreign aid more than half the black hole and the solution is freezing the uk pensioners who have worked and paid tax to the uk government all there working lives
@TheMuslimParadigm
Hello
@deanreid1117
I wish i was born somewhere else and came over on a boat then i would be respected by the criminal goverment
@danielurie4556
Giving 11.6 billion more than half the worth of the black hole to foreign aid but can’t heat our pensioners who have worked and paid tax to the uk government all there lives
@nialllee2695
Despicable Reeves. Sorry you CRETIN you are NOT making the sacrifice, BRITTISH PEOPLE ARE.
@deanreid1117
Would be nice if they were stopping their own winter fuel if it is ment to be that bad. But I bet they still getting theirs
@richardjohnson5529
Corruption abounds in all the parties so in the next election I will write None Of The Above .
@josephmurray2234
Defending the historic evil is evil a price will be paid in lives be it on your conscience too if you endorse this for only one life lost is unnecessary evil
@ianjohnson4541
Is there any substance to the claim regarding the 22 billion deficit, homies?
@prideofdurham4776
To save you the trouble of listening to the full speech she says "black hole , triple lock and tough decisions "interspersed with huge dollops of BS .
@snowman2970
The UK has one of the poorest pensions in Europe. Labour just made it worse.
@jamesunsworth8468
Stop foreign aid,
Stop paying for migrant hotels,
Help the elderly.
@elliotstenning8773
That’s all you hear. 22 billion debt. What a load of baloney. Stop sending money to other countries in aid when we can’t afford to look after our elderly. The ones who built this country. The ones who gave birth to the people in power now. They are a disgrace
@normansmart7502
Not according to your union paymasters😮
@colinmaclean5276
if all pensioner's die who is going to vote for Labour
@tubbyarmyoftwo222
Who liked this when the same amount was given to Ukraine
@Neil2022
What a whopper
@Msfiona69
YOU AND YOUR PARTY ARE A DISGRACE AND NEED REMOVING ASAP
@jackjones3047
I’d let her stay at mine
@The_Walrus_Was_Paul_1984
So, millions of pounds wasted on illegal Immigrants every f*cking day is fine?? They offer nothing to this country. It’s bonkers.
@colinmaclean5276
should be in jail
@bigbarty8648
And she didn't mention immigration once.
@sandie157
What a sickening hag… It's cowardly to take money from the poorest. She dare mot touch tje wealthy because she is looking to her own future gilded nest egg. At least tne Tories never pretend to care about the working man and woman.
