A protest in Dinnington, Rotherham has seen pensioners demand answers from the new Rother Valley MP, Jake Richards, after his party voted to 'means test' the winter fuel payment.

A crowd formed outside the Labour MP's constituency office, which was closed with the shutter down, in a planned gathering to protest the new government's decision set to be confirmed in the Chancellor's first budget in October 2024.
