He takes money from the energy companies, in a windfall tax, and gives it to us, to pay the energy companies. I’m sorry, what?
Giving a handie i think he meant to say
The warm home scheme was expanded to include hundreds of thousands of extra claimants. It was withdrawn from those just on PIP as its not means tested.
Sounds like a definition you’d find on Urban Dictionary.
As a disabled person I know they’re going to punish us for their temporary extra support. We have already seen the spin coming out that this is the biggest benefits rise in decades despite it not actually being a rise as benefits are still fixed at April’s adjustment and this is a new one off payment that we can assume you won’t get paid any of if you sign up for UC days after the installments come.
This will be used to freeze benefits despite high inflation and cause benefits to be worth less than before. We know next April they might rise by 9-10% which would be the biggest rise so potentially this special payment may be used to reduce next year’s rise or the year after.
Remember, Tories decided disabled people deserve £300 less per month for claiming UC vs ESA for literally no reason, you can have the same condition same situation and simply be paid less. They have no problem stealing vulnerable people’s money.
Bit suspicious that our NI increase went up a similar fee to the £400 cost we’re getting.
In other news, water is wet and the pope is catholic.
Of course that is what Sunak did. His political universe involves only this way of thinking.
And for it to be the “dead cat” remedy for partygate.
Rishi Hood, he steals from the poor to give to the rich

Martin Lewis is right, again.
Maybe this will be the first ever tax that will make something cheaper. Fingers crossed.

The world needs more Martin Lewis’ – national treasure
He did not want to give with one hand to begin with, just take with the other. If he was serious about helping people then the windfall tax would have been part of the spring budget and would have been more generous due to the known rise of fuel bills come the autumn. This is a PR stunt to take the focus off Partygate, which is why it amounts to nothing in the scheme of things.
sunak got the upvotes, now hop it.
He’s giving a half-hearted reach around with his left while he forces his right in up to the elbow.
I think I know what he’s doing with his other hand and I don’t really wanna think about it.

This is typical of the tories.
