Unite launches judicial review process over Winter Fuel Payment cut.

People do not understand, I do not understand how a Labour government has taken away the fuel allowance of millions of pensioners just as winter approaches.

Given the failure to rectify this in the budget, @unitetheunion has now commenced judicial review proceedings challenging the legality of the policy.

It is not too late for @UKLabour to register the hurt that this cruel policy has caused, step back from picking the pockets of pensioners and do the right thing.
