| May creating war between generations: Corbyn |
| 2017-05-21 |
| [Iran Press TV] Britannia's opposition Labour Party leader Jeremy Corbyn has accused the Conservative Party of fueling a "war between generations" by pitching young people against the old. In a speech in Birmingham on Saturday, Corbyn urged Prime Minister Theresa May to cancel the "anti-pensioner package" offered in the Conservative manifesto, which has caused divisions even among her own party members. "Where the Tories look to divide, Labour seeks to bring people together," Corbyn said. "The Tories are now trying to pitch the young against the old." "Their manifesto is a typical nasty party attempt to set generations against each other," he stated. "For pensioners, they offer a triple-whammy of misery, ending the triple lock which protects pensioner incomes, means testing the winter fuel allowance and slapping a ’dementia tax’ on those who need social care by making them pay for it with their homes," he added. |
