BREAKING NEWS - Winter fuel payments to be returned to pensioners with incomes of £35,000 or less

The government has confirmed the details of its U-turn on cuts to winter fuel payments.
From this winter, everyone above the state pension age in England and Wales who has an income of £35,000 or less will receive the benefit.

The government says pensioners do not need to do anything, as the payment will be issued to all and those with incomes above the threshold will have the payment recovered by HMRC.

It follows the government scrapping the winter fuel payment for almost all pensioners last year. Only those who received pension credit or similar benefits still got it.

This meant the number of people eligible fell from 11.4 million to 1.5 million.

It was one of the first acts of the new Labour government but drew heavy criticism from charities, opposition parties and voters.
The Treasury has now stated this policy has been reversed, with the threshold raised significantly.

It estimates that around nine million people - more than three-quarters of all pensioners - will receive the payment this winter.

SAD NEWS -This morning we received the sad news that Mike Johnson, who founded the original radio station on 105.5, has passed away.

Mike played a vital role in shaping local radio here in Milton Keynes, and his legacy will be felt for many years to come. He will be missed by so many people whose lives he touched through his passion and dedication.

Our thoughts are with Mike’s friends and family at this difficult time.

Rest in peace, Mike.
