The way Britain's pensioners have been treated by all Government's since the earnings link to State pension increases was cut by the 1980's Tory Government, is a national disgrace.
Ide like to see Mumsnet campaign for British pensioners to receive a decent state pension they can live on without means testing.
Ide also like to see British pensioners excempt from paying taxes, as this generation have already spent a working life paying taxes.
After all none of us would be here today if it had not been for the efforts of our war veterans during World War 2.
It is now time the under pensionable aged of Britain forgot all about number 1, and started standing and being counted on behalf of our elderly people.
Our pensioners cannot strike, they cannot withold their labour, they have to rely on the conscience of the people of the country they liberated from the hands of the Nazis at the end of World War 2, to help them out.
What about it Mumsnet ??????
