More Labour Spin on heating allowance

Labour latest claim is ‘in the past’ pensioners received a ‘bonus payment’ on top of the
normal heating allowance.
Labour claim that this additional payment for pensioner households was stopped by
the Coalition Government.

There is one little problem?? 
HOW CAN THE COALITION CANCEL A PAYMENT LABOUR CANCELLED
     
Yes included it was in Labour’s expenditure budget for one year, with a ‘nil’ figure entered for 2011-2012 onwards, it seems to be a blatant sweetener before last years general election.

You can check this out by checking Labour’s official budget figures, item 20
in table A1. 
 
This is undeniable proof that the Labour Government only intended to make
the additional payment for 2010-2011. There were no plans to continue
this payment in future years and therefore the Coalition cannot have
stopped it, in fact the new Government is determined to raise the state
pension and has already started by increasing the state pension to give a better standard of living for all pensioners.
