@sweemaa35@YardleyShooting@AdrianJ54716531 Cull it all. I want a smaller state. Quite happy to lose all this nonsense.
This generation had free universal higher education and just succeeded in making the country poorer for future generations. They should pay the cost, not the youth.
@simonwatt85 Yep. Agreed it's come in by stealth. Good.
Not up to the state to save people that have 30-40 years to sort their finances for retirement, especially if they have equity in their house. If they're a non home owner then I have more sympathy.
@LinWells81@AnnelieseDodds Then means test it and make it stringent. Stop millionaires getting a benefit they don't need. Very easy to spend spend spend when it's someone else's money.
@LinWells81@AnnelieseDodds They may have worked but they haven't saved adequately. The two are not mutually inclusive. Relying on just the state pension for your retirement planning is ridiculous.
@Phat_Zorst@PensionsMonkey You just wish that was the case. Make the state pension means tested then, cut the triple lock. I dont care. We as an aging nation need to spend less on the pension bill. Simple as.
