What's the next part where the price will go through the roof?

Bryanj:
I refer to somebody in the pasts comment.

You can tell when an MP/CIVIL SERVANT/COUNCILOR is lying  as their lips are moving!

McCabe-Thiele (Ted):
I am of the blinkered view that Global Warming (GW) is not primarily a man made issue - interesting that there are no research funds available in the UK if you want to study for a Doctorate  to prove  that GW is not  a man made problem.

I think before the next election that our Nigel should form a political party to scrap the proposed ban on Gas Boilers & ICE propulsion. They would get my vote!

Sesman:
I agree. I can’t help thinking it’s just a push to generate a whole new world industrial economy…..but I’m a pessimist.

One things a cert, we will be unconscious participants without collective influence.

I mean, I never heard of objection when the new modern pension was unleashed, effectively robbing the over 50s of ten years worth of SERPS/SP2 contributions amounting to around £3500 a year in pension.

Have we lost the thread here…?

Oddjob:
I always wondered why someone didn't sue the Government for breach of Contract, they made a contract with everyone to pay pension at 65 or 60 if you were a woman, yet they broke that contract and no one said a thing.

I had to work an extra year because I missed the cutoff date by a few months, cost me another year of NI contributions and a loss of £700 a month in pension payments.

Also we were still in the EU when this happened, so they were supposed to conform to EU guidelines on pension age yet they ignored all that. They retire much earlier in France for instance.

Wendy had to work another 6 years her pension age moved from 60 to 66 as she was born in 1954.
