Disgusting comments haha
It’s literally a Tory policy but let’s ignore that element.
I happen to believe there are lots and lots of very affluent pensioners who are getting up rates they simply don’t need and this money would be better transferred to helping those most in need.
If it had been a “double lock” for a few years this would have raised billions, this could have pumped money into services that old people need and more especially poorer pensioners.
Old people be fucked, everyone gets old, if they are lucky you looking forward to being Old?
A tory policy, yeah rightio, a Tory government that has wasted trillions over the last ten years or more on policy failure after failures
You can believe what you like, but not all pensioners, have had decent businesses, well paid job's with very good retirement plans, I see it everyday in my working week, pensioners afraid to run their boilers for fear of not being able to pay the next bill, or those who don't have the money to top their pre-payment meters up, you wouldn't see it in the tory circles that you probably move in.
"If it had been a “double lock” for a few years this would have raised billions, this could have pumped money into services that old people need and more especially poorer pensioners."
You're an expert then?
You can butter it up all you like, but its about time people who have worked all their lives receive the benefits they deserve, not all can or could afford to have private pensions, or have worked in an environment that enables them to receive final salary pensions.
Millions have worked in hard physically demanding jobs and are suffering from ill health, arthritic joints etc they haven't all sat behind a desk looking out of the window of their offices and drinking coffee all day, their stress levels must be off the scale bless them :roll: yet most can look forward to a decent pension if not a final salary one and yes they still exist.
