Another Labour bribe on the way

£150 payout for parents of children to pay for winter fuel.

I guess we'll spend it on an iPod or wine for the cellar or something (and still never vote Labour)

[Yugguy]

my reply would be "thanks very much gordon, now be a good lad and fk off"

[chris watton]

yeah, just seen this on the news; will it be like the money they put in our bank (even though we didn't want it)for the child tax credit, only to want it all back a year later....

Sorry Browner, im not open to bribery and corruption....like you are.

This must be part of browns plan to really piss off everybody who doesnt have children yet get taxed into the ground to pay for this st

[Deluded]

Why does a child deserve a car more than an adult in the winter? Make the fat little sts walk to school and maybe they wont be so obese.

Maybe give out £150 worth of bike/accessories vouchers to buy the kiddies bikes to ride to school and get more school run mums off the road to save the environment. Or are they not playing the green card anymore?

What I dont understand is why they tax the st out of everyone on petrol to get people off the road, then pay credit to selected people to keep them on the road. Save some of our hard earned money instead of spending it on ste like this.

I have just read that 'Times Online' article and it really made me think it was politics written by the 'SniffPetrol' team for some comedy value.

unbelievable that these people are really in charge, it really is advanced muppetry.

Why not give it to charity or someone who actually needs it? In Browns world it seems single people with minnimum wage jobs dont get cold in the winter and dont struggle to pay their fuel bills.

But if most kids are obese, they already have a winter protector. It should go to skinny people.

Believe me, it doesn't matter wether you have kids or not, labour tax you into oblivion anyway.

Correct. Or, 'shock horror story', people could put on a jumper like we all used to when we were cold and many years younger.

I am trying to think how they can spin this to climate change, must be an angle in there somewhere?
