NINE IN 10 TO LOSE FUEL CASH

MORE than 850,000 Scottish pensioners will lose out as a result of the change in eligibility for the winter fuel payment.

The SNP has said as it called on the Prime Minister to U-turn on the "damaging plan".

Research from the House of Commons Library shows more than 991, 431 pensioners in Scotland received the payment in 2022-23. There were 133,106 pensioners receiving pension credit or other means-tested benefits, meaning 87 per cent will lose the payment.
