Why Has the Government Picked on Pensioners?

Widower Elaine Yates tells Susanna and Ed that it took her six weeks to fill out the pension credit application form. She explains that she doesn't cook meals because she doesn't want to turn on her oven because it's too expensive to use. Susanna challenges Jonathan Reynolds about Labour's decision to withdraw the winter fuel allowance for millions of pensioners, and Ed tells Jonathan that viewers can't understand why the government have picked on pensioners to help close the financial black hole.
