Moment Keir Starmer is humiliated by winter fuel rebellion at Labour Party conference

SIR Keir Starmer has been dealt an embarrassing blow as Labour members voted to reverse his controversial winter fuel payments cut.

While the vote is not binding, it ramps up pressure on the PM, who is facing a storm of criticism from the public and left-wing factions within his party.

The motion, put forward by Unite and the Communication Workers Union (CWU) at Labour Party conference, called for means testing of the winter fuel allowance to be reversed.

It also urged the Government to ditch their fiscal rules, which prevent borrowing to invest, and to introduce a wealth tax.
