The spokesperson for UK Prime Minister Starmer stated on Tuesday that the UK government will not reverse the cuts to winter fuel and welfare spending. This comes after the party suffered consecutive defeats in local elections. Labour party figures in the political arena said that one of the reasons for the party's poor performance in the elections was people's dissatisfaction with the government's cuts to fuel and disability subsidies. Starmer's spokesperson said, "The government has set out the policies and explained the reasons behind these policies, the government's policy has not changed and will not change."
