RT @PolitlcsUK: 🚨 NEW: The government has pledged an extra £889 million of funding for GPs for the 25/26 financial year
Winter fuel, planning, WASPI - quite striking how a government that shuns controversy in a lot of areas is lumping the fight on three issues that disproportionately attract criticism from older voters. Sign of Labour doubling down on its younger coalition?
