I guess even more disabled people than usual can starve to death or be driven to suicide if it saves a tiny fraction of the country's GDP. Meanwhile those in charge waste money like there's no tomorrow.

The removal of the winter fuel payments affected many other low income people. For example, twice a year for the past few years, local councils have been giving cost of living/hardship payments to people on low incomes. My local council was meant to give us £100 each this winter. I was really relying on that for basics like food. However, because of the government withdrawing the winter fuel payments to the elderly, my local council decided to spend all of this year's hardship payments on the elderly, to compensate them for the loss of the winter fuel payment, leaving nothing for other low income and disabled people like me. So because of the government's decision to take away elderly people's winter fuel payments, I now get nothing.
