It's good to see the UK govt finally putting some pressure on #Israel and reversing cuts to the winter fuel allowance.
What do you think the reasons for this are?
A: #Starmer has suddenly developed a conscience and can now see that genocide and killing pensioners are bad
B: He's shit scared by the local election results and is desperately trying to avoid losing more votes

I admit, I've been a bit confused over the winter fuel payment drama as I thought it was about giving pensioners allowance for car fuel, and I'm aware pensioners have access to bus pass, so I've been really confused.
Now I'm aware it's about paying for heating, yes this is a really weird and cruel thing to do, and a very weird hill to die on.
