What are the immediate consequences of the government's decision not to compensate Waspi women and cut winter fuel payments?

Kemi Badenoch criticized Keir Starmer for broken promises, citing the lack of Waspi women compensation despite previous pledges and cuts to winter fuel payments. The government cited a £10.5bn cost for Waspi compensation, while Starmer countered with a £22bn economic deficit inherited from the previous Tory government. This led to a back-and-forth on pension policies and economic management.
