@CarolineLucas Read the room you idiot - last thing most voters care about at the minute is a minuscule change to the planet’s temperatures anything we do in the UK will cause…… if the population in china broke wind THAT would have a greater impact 🙈
@curebores@Mac__xx If we don’t provide for our elderly now what’s the future going to look like for the 30’s and 40’s - state pension has and always will be an easy target because it’s looked at in the total wrong way - EU countries make it work…
@curebores@Mac__xx Totally disagree - as I said wrong target …. Short sightedness, tax payers have choices, less holidays, one less car , a few less luxuries, some pensioners are not in a position to make those choices and rely completely on their pension to survive
@curebores@Mac__xx I AM one of those taxpayers and I hate it - BUT I am also pragmatic enough to know targeting the elderly is not the answer - greedy corporate conglomerates is a start and more of a worthy target
@curebores@Mac__xx There are no if’s or maybe’s - if you cannot look after your own as FIRST priority then what kind of country are we ? - in all honesty I very much doubt the NHS would have got the green light today…
@curebores@Mac__xx I am not old enough - Plus I don’t see why it needs to be an argument either - if you justify inept prioritisation of budgets then you are part of the isssue - if you think the burden is bad now wait until the next generation retire that don’t have DB pensions
@PunishedRWR@ronnie895446501 We already lose out compared to other countries - and it’s only going to get worse… if we sleepwalk into believing the issue is simply demographics you are 100% consigning your pension to the bin
@antlufc@TheSquareBall@Michael_TSB Yeah but this is Bates we are talking about lol….. good luck to the legal team unravelling his will - they will be chasing it all round the British Virgin Isles - At least he will still have plenty of pens left for the executors to sign it all off
@riley_pulham See the last player they outbid us for worked out brilliantly didn’t it …… bidding war is what Southampton want….. walk away overpriced ….
