Day twenty one

It's a bigger window today.

 

Winter fuel allowance for ex-pats in France?

The Daily Telegraph ran an article with the headline and subhead:
Pensioners living in France miss out on payment after officials 'manipulate' calculations
Thousands miss out on winter fuel allowance after Department for Work and Pensions includes Caribbean and Indian Ocean islands to calculate 'average' temperature of France

Nice to see that the British press have finally caught up with this - my mother told me a year ago and I wrote an article about it (complete with some colourful language) on 2nd January.
Still, better late than never, I guess.

 

 

Your comments:

As of February 2025, commenting is no longer available to UK residents, following the implementation of the vague and overly broad Online Safety Act. You must tick the box below to verify that you are not a UK resident, and you expressly agree if you are in fact a UK resident that you will indemnify me (Richard Murray), as well as the person maintaining my site (Rob O'Donnell), the hosting providers, and so on. It's a shitty law, complain to your MP.
It's not that I don't want to hear from my British friends, it's because your country makes stupid laws.
