Sutton’s new Lib Dem MP says he will be voting against the Government’s planned cut to the Winter Fuel Allowance tonight.

Luke Taylor says he has been inundated with correspondence from residents and he has to stand up for them in Parliament.

Analysis shows that almost 9 in every 10 state pensioners in the borough are at risk of losing the £300 payment.

Liberal Democrats initially called for a vote by tabling a motion and say they will “now take the opportunity to oppose the government.”
