To the House of Commons, the petition of Croydon residents,
Declares that the Winter Fuel Payment should not be withdrawn from almost all pensioners by being made means-tested; further that the Government's plans would mean 84% of pensioners in poverty will lose the Winter Fuel Payment; further that the Government's plans would withdraw it from pensioners on less than half the minimum wage; and further that pensioners remain worried about and vulnerable to winter energy costs.
The petitioners therefore request that the House of Commons urges the Government to ensure that the Winter Fuel Payment is not withdrawn from almost all pensioners by being made means-tested.
