4:43:36Now PlayingMPs have voted to cut the winter fuel payment for all but the country's poorest pensioners.
A Tory move to axe the cut was defeated by 348 to 228 votes - a majority of 120.
The move - which will see around 10 million people lose the payment of up to £300 to help with energy costs - has been defended by Labour, who said "tough decisions" need to be made in light of the £22bn "black hole" in public finances.
