No. £300 for couples I believe but it's more for over 80s.

Does a married couple get £200 each winter payment ?

Think they’ll need to do both, raising taxes, removing triple lock to pay for all the borrowing the virus is going to cost, plus other stuff as well.

Sell the family silver grin

They obviously feel that many pensioners are pretty well off.

Why not start by removing the £10 that we get in December ? What was that for anyway ? I'm sure if that was implemented it would raise an amount that they could then work on.

What do we think of our Government in general and Rishi Sunak in particular, seriously considering removing the state pension triple lock instead of raising taxes.

Have you already started or decided to make a start on shoring up your finances should this happen?
What might you need to do?
