The state pension is not a random government favour, it’s the back end of a 35–40 year compulsory “contract” where people are forced to hand over National Insurance on the clear promise of a basic pension at the end.

Politicians and think tanks helped design an unfunded, pay‑as‑you‑go system where today’s workers pay today’s pensioners, then have the gall to call it “unsustainable” as if the public dreamt it up.

If a private firm sold you a retirement product on fixed terms, took your money for four decades, then announced at 66 that you “didn’t really need it” and would henceforth be means‑tested or frozen, they would be in court for mis‑selling and fraud.

The crisis here is not pensioners “leeching off the young”, it’s a political class that built a Ponzi‑style NI system, diverted the proceeds for other spending, and now wants to default on the people who kept their side of the bargain.

You do not blame the victims of a defective product for believing the brochure; you go after the people who wrote it.

Give a £50 note to a butcher. He spends it at the baker

The baker spends it at the candlestick maker. Each of them gets the full £50. It keeps circulating, doing its job, again & again

After 50 transactions, it’s still £50. Now do the same thing with a card. Every time that £50 moves, a cut is taken, 1.5%, 3%, sometimes even 5%

The butcher pays. The baker pays. The candlestick maker pays. Each transaction chips away at the total. Keep that going 50 times…& a large portion of that original £50 has been taken in fees

This is the real reason they want a cashless society

Cash is freedom, but it’s also trillions the banks can NOT take from you

@STVNews I don’t trust Swinney to control Scotland’s energy, says Badenoch.
Translation,👇
Westminster are terrified they lose control of Scotland's energy.

[Syd the Squid🏴󠁧󠁢󠁳󠁣󠁴󠁿 Set Scotland Free @D4444Syd]

@craigymeighan She forgets to tell us that, when it comes to oil, it’s all reserved to Westminster, nothing to do with John Swinney.

Oil was discovered off the shores of Scotland in the 1960s then suddenly a country living inside the M25 got exceedingly Rich.

@Daily_Record @AnasSarwar No such thing as Scottish Labour, Labour & Westminster stole our oil then closed Grangemouth, they are now stealing our electricity, won’t be long and the water will be next.

[Paolo @Balnagowan67]

This is what Labour gave us!

[Stephen Flynn @StephenFlynnSNP]

Grangemouth produced jet fuel for all of Scotland.

The UK Government let it shut.

Surely people are realising that outsourcing jobs, investment, emissions and energy security leaves us weaker, not stronger.

Scotland’s resources should be controlled by Scotland.

@ScottishLabour Parents need a break from Westminster based English parties trying to control Scotland. #Liebour

[Simon Forrest @SimonForrest11]

Grangemouth produced 97% of Scotland’s aviation fuel. We now have to import all our aviation fuel.
Scotland is Europe's 2nd biggest oil producer. We now have to import all our oil products at inflated prices.
Scotland: Asset-stripped. Wealth-extracted. Better-together? 🤔

Of course Labour in Scotland would sell our Scottish NHS to the private sector. Wes Streeting In England has already said he would ""welcome" private investment in England's NHS: https://t.co/fz9eFnzeVP
