Author: Buspasspar Date: Wed 27th Mar 2024. 10:21 Sunak saying vote Tory and he will keep the triple lock Lord Willetts, a former Tory MP, told i the lock, introduced in 2010, was “funded by the speeding up of the pension age”. He said the Government decided to bring forward the increase in the state pension age for women to help pay for the policy, adding the “precedent and evidence so far” indicates that keeping the triple lock makes it likely the retirement age could be increased further. This means it may have to rise to 68, sooner than 2044, its current estimated increase. It will rise to 67 by the end of this decade. We are forever shaped by the Children we once were Reply |

In a twist of fate, it`s the toffs in the south east who will get more out of this "benefit" than some poor person in Glasgow due to the vast difference in life expectancy. I haven`t looked recently but I don`t think 68 is too far off the average male life expectancy in parts of Glasgow. Just checked and average life expectancy in Calton is 67.8 years!

| 30. Author: red-star-par Date: Fri 3rd May 2024. 09:16 Whenever Labour get the opportunity to do what is right, they either vote against it, or abstain. I voted Labour for the first 20 years I had a vote, but this is the reason I couldn`t bring myself to vote for them again. They are the Red Wing of the Tory Party Reply |

| 36. Author: wee eck Date: Wed 18th Dec 2024. 10:46 If part of Labour`s campaign was to improve public faith in politicians then they have failed badly. These pictures of Starmer and Kendall, when they were in opposition, supporting the campaign of the WASPI women have not worn well. Reply |

It does not matter who is in power at WM they are all a bunch of arrogant, self righteous, incompetent, crooked, bare faced liars. We deserve everything we get though as a nation for being so utterly gullible… What an opportunity we missed in 2014. Reply |
