General (General discussion, talk about anything.)
I would like to ask the members what they think or have any comment's on the news that broke yesterday that this TORY GOVERNMENT are seriously considering putting up the age one recieves their OLD AGE PENSION. The statement went on to say that because we are all living longer the country will not and cannot sustain the current levels of paying the popupous . So their plan's could be raising by 2028 to 70 yrs and by 2035 they could see it go up to a staggering 75 years before one could claim their O.A.P. On reading and hearing this it cast my mind back to the recent riots in FRANCE , where MACRON wanted to ,or has put it up to 62 years to get their pension , I JUST WONDER WHAT THEY WOULD DO IF HE WERE TO TRY JUST SUCH AN EXERCISE ????/
