Public sector workers are in line for a pay rise but 10 million pensioners will lose out on winter fuel payments in an attempt to fill a £22 billion black hole in the public finances, the Chancellor has announced.

Rachel Reeves said she was making “difficult decisions” as she accused the previous government of leaving £21.9 billion of unfunded commitments that it had “covered up from the country”.

In a statement to Parliament, she set out “immediate action” to address the shortfall by £5.5 billion, with the rest of the gap to be addressed at a Budget on October 30.

Talk’s Ian Collins is joined by Dr Roger Gewolb, who says Rachel Reeves blaming the Conservative Party for the ‘black hole’ is “a whole load of tosh”.

    Why don't they stop giving our money to undeserving nations, who have space programmes, who fight many wars😢
  • @markscript5746
    Public sector unions obeyed and migrants kept in a luxury lifestyle but elderly people just expected to die quietly of hypothermia
  • @susanhorne2143
    Stop the100 of millions leaving the country in foreign aid. Maybe then we can afford to be generous with our elderly.
  • @davidfoster2006
    Picking on the pensioners with the lowest state pension in Western Europe is a disgrace.
  • @mark.k7206
    The day you decide to pick on the old, frail & vulnerable, you give up the right to call yourself a Socialist. You give up the right to ever talk of caring or understanding people’s needs. This is Starmers policy, and Starmers responsibility, no hiding behind a Chancellor
  • @clivet3252
    Labour lie and then lie about their lies and lie some more.
  • Junior doctors and teachers get a pay rise, whilst pensioners get a pay cut - that's a really wonderful look.
  • Labour’s priorities are all wrong. Spending money abroad, on illegal migrants and on vanity projects is mad. Surely, we should only make such commitments when it’s affordable.
  • Stop giving spending money etc to illegal refugees and cut back on giving more money to other country Shopping list!!!!!Look after our people
  • @parzival1958
    As long as the migrants are looked after that is all that matters !!!!!!!!!!!
  • @alanbradley9621
    Thats right. A whole load of tosh is what it is. Just an excusr because the illegal immigrants budget is out of control. Reeves is another Govt excusnick blaming the defenceless.
