Delegates voted to reverse the government's controversial cut to winter fuel payments, illustrating divisions within the Labour Party over the legitimacy of the cuts as a financial measure.
The decision to cut winter fuel payments affects around 10 million pensioners and raises concerns about the financial security and well-being of older citizens.
Rachel Reeves claimed that increases in the state pension would compensate for the cut, yet many party members remain skeptical about this assertion.
The passed motion highlights an urgency for financial action, stating that 'Britain cannot wait for growth, nor turn back to failed austerity', revealing internal party tensions.
