Where do they get this £13000 ,I don’t know any pensioners on that amount, I get £9900 a year ,

[@shazAnddollysausage]

Possibly the figure includes the pension credit payment on top and maybe when theyre on PIP also ,I'm not a pensioner quite yet but know many of course and thst figure tallies aprox with the added I wrote 🥺🙏,gives GOVT no right to include pensioners on minimum state pension it's the cruelest of cruel 💔🥺

[@PA28Ace]

I get £14,500

[@lasttango7522]

Exactly. My gran gets the same. Its shocking how pensioners have been treated by this government. Of course they are frightened. Pensioners always try and manage without fuss. Now many are worried and distressed impacting on their mental health. Its scandelous and a betrayal to a generation that worked hard.

[@shazAnddollysausage]

@@PA28Ace few pensioner friends have the same but only as pension credit also and all on PIP as disabled 🙏

With the country in such a state time to look again at foreign aid why are we giving 480 million to Pakistan, 370 million to Bangladesh, 240 million to Palestine Yeman 100 million and that's only part of our overseas aid, some of that money would be better spent at home.

Kier Starmer has no idea how much more some pensioners need to spend on personal hygeine products, glasses, eye drops, heating and mobility aids. All very expensive to buy I might add.

[@BlueSabor]

“I agree” 100%

[@johnlewis4398]

Starmer and Labour should be ashamed of themselves, a case of "I'm alright, Jack". A public servant with a final salary pension can retire well before 65, those working in the private sector don't have final salary pensions and a large number depend on their state pension which they have to wait until they're 67 to get. If the pensioners of today knew they were going to be treated so despicably, I'm sure they would have protested most strongly against paying national insurance (forced taxation). Two tier country, the majority pay through the nose for the benefit of the minority unjustifiably. Its just another example of the totalitarian state imposed by a minority party who had the support of only 20% of the electorate.

Watching Stasi Starmer being bundled into a police car, along with Lound Mouth Lammy, for his own safety recently, didn't surprise me. Neither did the missiles thrown by the crowd bouncing off the back of the police car as it drove away at speed. The people are angry at the cruelty of this labour government. Picking on old people is despicable and it will be the beginning of the end for Starmer. I can't see this government and it's full on lunacy lasting.
