A leading older people's charity says that inexcusable fuel poverty levels have caused over two thousand extra deaths among older people in Northern Ireland over the last four winters. It's a worrying statistic and one that Age Sector Platform says in the biggest concern for pensioners here. Our reporter, Nicola Weir, gatecrashed the latest meeting of the Pensioners' parliament yesterday to find out how our older people cope with fuel poverty and if they think our politicians are doing a good job when it comes to looking after those who are facing a choice between eating or heating. #BBCNolan
