The yearly tax-free payment to help people pay for their heating in the winter was worth £250 for the over 60s last week, and £400 for the over 80s.

But the payment will revert to £200 and £300 for the two age groups in the winter of 2011-12.

Both the Tories and the Lib Dems seem to be eating into Labour's lead in the polls.

One recent poll had the Tories in front for the first time since December and the Lib Dems up to 16%,

That is because people are starting to see how ridiculous their comments/ attacks are. Ed Milliband won't be the leader of the labour party at the next election.
