A lot of pensioners rely on the State pension because they have paid in for it all their working lives.

Michaelt. I think you may be labouring under the misapprehension that we're going to welcome criticisms of us as a group for our lack of political motivation and dearth of any knowledge as to how our state pension is calculated, by someone without even the basic manners to greet us politely or even introduce themselves properly before wading in at the deep end.

Not angry or agitated Dave. Just get irritated by bad manners, mate. :)

Hi everybody,  this is a pensioners site, and pensioners are treated very badly in this country re- State pensions provisions, particularly our living WW2 Veterans, because if it wasnt for their efforts and sacrifices during WW2, probably none of us would be here today.

And if we hadn't stuck our noses in 1939 we'd still all be here today but we'd be getting German pensions, so it could be argued that we did ourselves no favours.  ;D
