Thank you that info and I really hope needy pensioners receive the money.

Well done GB, however dubious your motives!

Great effort, but how are GB News going to distribute this?

How will they decide who is “worthy”.

I know this is a political jibe from GB News resulting from the WFA cuts.

Apparently, the money is going to be given to a charity called 'Friends of the Elderly'.

You can see how they distribute their funds here:

I don't have a problem (except doubting it can be "fair throughout the country" because of the resources that would be needed to assess would be absolutely massive).

I can't help thinking that there would be more money for pensioners in poverty if the last Conservative govt had managed the economy better, but that would be churlish. I always give a donation to Shelter and Crisis at Christmas instead of sending Christmas cards. I think it's good to think of others in need so I applaud GB news' initiative. Well done.

PS It’s not a “negative” it’s a question followed by an observation.
