Who’s going to tell them that the answer is immigration?

And explain who will look after those denied an income, if you stop the pension credit.

Well, if it’s you or I that are giving them an income, do you think it’s fair that we give them a bigger income than we get?

I don’t.

Well, if it’s you or I that are giving them an income, do you think it’s fair that we give them a bigger income than we get?

I don’t.

Do they get a bigger income than you or I?

You can't decide something is unfair until you prove the "unfair" thing is occurring.

 

[fixitflav]

Do they get a bigger income than you or I me?

Maybe not, but I've worked for it. Don't know about you.

 

[King Billy]

So do you think pension credit is unfair?

Let me think….. 221 v 238+. What would you say the bigger number of those two figures would be? Gosh, that’s a hard one, isn’t it…

 

[fixitflav]

So do you think pension credit is unfair?

The amount of it, yes. Do you think spending on defence should be far below what it should be, as agreed by most people, in order for welfare payments to be high?

You're out-of-date, old fruit.

Full New State Pension: Up to £241.30 per week

So what do you suggest we do?

It's pointless saying something is unfair, like it's unfair that some get cancer and die, while others don't.
You need to have an idea of what to do to make it fair.

 

[Mottie]

You're out-of-date, old fruit.

So, £3 a week more plus loss of potential benefits in return for paying NI for a minimum of 35 years. Still doesn’t seem a good deal to me.

Hasn't the pension credit figure gone up as well?

What do you propose?
Or are you just content in griping about it?

 

[King Billy]

Hasn't the pension credit figure gone up as well?

Can't you do your own research?

 

[fixitflav]

Can't you do your own research?

No I can't, I've better things to do. Mottie knows these things' I'll leave it to him

 

[Ivor Windybottom]

You're much better off if you don't bother with a pension and just get the most expensive house you can possibly afford. Then you can sell it and cash in the profit, completely tax-free, if you need to, and get the additional full state pension.
