The Massive Winter Fuel Payment 'Cut' No One Ever Talks About

The UK's universal winter fuel payment, once benefiting over 11 million people, was scaled back by Labour, now reaching around 1.3 million who meet certain criteria.

This benefit—£200 for those aged 60-79 and £300 for older recipients—has remained unchanged since 2000, despite surging inflation and energy costs.

Adjusted for inflation, the £200 payment would be around £370 today; if aligned with rising energy prices, it could be close to £1,000 and would have exceeded £1,200 during the 2022-23 energy crisis.
