Winter fuel payments: Canterbury's Labour MP, Rosie Duffield, failed to protect winter fuel payments for the elderly in Canterbury, Whitstable and the villages. Today in the Commons vote, she chose to abstain.
Keeping the party whip is more important (to Rosie Duffield) than ensuring that many vulnerable local elderly on below minimum wage don't have to choose between eating or heating this winter.
