I have a question to ask of the house of Lords... In 2016 Britain was still a member of the European Union.. Today, Europeans still receive their state pension at 60 years. Did David Cameron break the law by altering the state pension age? If so what can the House of Lords do about it?

[@carollever4662]

It’s true. Parliamentary representatives just read a script and they can’t debate any issues at all. It’s just mindless banter.
