It's time for 'reformUK' to tell the truth...

Why, most of your generation did the opposite?

My generation ? Cheeky f***. I’m 54.

Yep, old people.

Although being fair most of the moaners are even older.

Being less cheeky/arseholish: anyone who is just retiring is going to get a level of pension that they didn't provide for the previous generation and didn't pay in as much as the next generation will have to in order to support them.

depends entirely on their income.

You started a thread suggesting Reform needed to tell the truth about Pensions. The only one looking to weaken them is Labour. Sorry your thread backfired on you.

You clearly missed the reference to the CFABB which formed this part of the policy.

Aveatry can thank me later.

You can show the Reform policy that CFABB wrote, I assume? Or perhaps it’s their own independent view.

Did the guardian say it was so?

Burnham confesses he’s after your pension.

Andy Burnham pledges pension triple lock changes to fund care reforms

The PM was at times emotional during his conference speech in which he outlined his long-term plan for the UK.

Nigel: No cuts to the funds available for accommodating illegal immigrants/invaders in Labour's plans.

NIGEL FARAGE: To break the contract with pensioners now is a betrayal

The first pockets Mr Burnham has chosen to pick are those who have worked hard their whole lives, paid their National Insurance and generally done the right thing.

Well, a quick g00gle tells me about 1.35 million people in the UK work a second job

Working two (or more) jobs is nothing new. I'm sure that most of us have done it at some point. I used to work all the hours god sent when I was younger, at as many jobs as I could get, and loved it. Perfectly normal if you are an eager worker.

anyone who is just retiring is going to get a level of pension that they didn't provide for the previous generation and didn't pay in as much as the next generation will have to in order to support them.

Many people retiring now will have paid hardly anything into the state pension, some not a single penny, and yet they have the same entitlement as those who have. That is the problem.

 

[motorbiking]

And it's those who have paid in the most who will be targeted. National Insurance, that doesn't pay out.

As i already said...

One of the best ideas Labour have had for a long time. It's so obvious it's hard to see why nobody has proposed this vital public service before now: adjusting the State Pension Triple Lock to the State Pension, ensuring it rises by at least inflation or 2.5% each year is a capital notion. Those savings will contribute towards care for everyone, regardless, creating a more caring society to the one enforced on the UK after decades of Tory greed, incompetence and mismanagement.

...AB was quite right to say "if we don’t fix our broken social care system, it will eventually break the NHS too. There are huge costs to the NHS both through pressures on A&Es and an inability to discharge patients home because of a lack of adequate social care."

Their plan doesn't involve taking money away from people at the bottom of the social scale while giving tax breaks to the richest folk who can afford private care. Opponents of this scheme seem to be happy with an American-style healthcare system because they can afford it, while denying anyone of lesser means the opportunity for the same right.

'Reformers' won't face the truth of their proposed solutions to the problems of our society because they hope to jump on the gravy train while the truth is they'll have to fight for the scraps thrown to them, like everybody else. The CFABB say: Some of our insights will be for wider publication, others will be commissioned and available for private use.

Private use? What do they have to hide from the general public. Can you guess?

What is he proposing for Social Case other than "funded by everybody". Nothing on fixing the problem of cost, nothing on who is eligible, nothing on who pays what.

He could fix the problem immediately, by allowing care costs to be tax deductible.

Adjusting the Triple Lock is estimated to reduce state pension spending by £15 billion a year by the end of the 2030s, rising to £50 billion a year by 2050. The UK will continue to have one of most generous approaches to increasing the State Pension in the world.

Baroness Casey will recommend how this could be done through the work of her independent Commission, which is being informed by public deliberation and ongoing cross-party talks. Her report is due in summer 2027.

State pension is among the lowest in Europe, only handful pay less and many pay much more.
