what needs to be cancelled is the money for scroungers.. not the money for those people who have paid their way all their lives and are still being taxed

Ok so I have a private company pension, I should also have had a separate lump sum payout. But it was invested in usa and enron happened, so 11% of income paid to one, 5%paid to the other 16% max you could then put into private schemes, Then the state pension was delayed by a year..I now find that half my state pension is effectively wiped out in tax because of the threshold limits..upshot is im £50 a week better off..whoopee dooooo 😮
How about.. now don't go getting soppy on me or anything.. but how about Sunak's billionaire wife pays for the debt ?!!
State pension could be cancelled if you vote Tory | The News Agenda. 1.5.24. Same old same old…. keep national insurance contributions as is, lessen cost of genuine pharmacy drugs, as cheap supermarket pills and potions are crap!!! most of these imperilled imbeciles don't know what National insurance contributions are or what the words mean…..
The heart of the Tories are pensioners So that won't happen you have more of a chance of the SNP getting independence for the Scottish thistle !
Do you not remember that George Osbourne in his first budget announced a study to look at merging IT and NI, never reported back
ALL THIS CRAP HAS HAPPENED SINCE TORIES GOT POWER, THEY ARE GREEDY USELESS DICKS, WE NEVER LET THEM IN POWER AGAIN. THEY ARE NOT THE REAL PEOPLES FRIENDS
THE GUY SAIF KIER WONT WIN OBVIOUSLY IS CORRUPT LIKE THE TORIES
I had breathing problems and a 1 hour wait for an ambulance so was taken the 15 miles to nearest a & e by my daughter. Luckily she was not at work.
Dad had his routine cancer check canceled because this government so badly mismanaged covid and the NHS. They found his cancer more than a year after that canceled check, once it was already stage 3. He died just a few months later. The cascade of knock on effects on the health and wellbeing on the rest of the family has been devastating. Imagine how much worse covid would have been if the conservatives had gotten further in dismantling the NHS.
Liz Tuss's budget alone lost the ecomomy £30 billion according to reports, also increased borrowing by £411 billion which will increase those costs significantly. Brexit caused the economy to shrink by £140 billion and again those costs are ever increasing. Imagine how much better an NHS we could have had with even a fraction of those numbers being invested in the NHS.
Brexiteers want us to die before we can retire as they've destroyed the country with their Brexit lies and deceit and now there's no money.
Won't be voting liebour or tories
The ONLY FAMILY that aspires to live and breed on state welfare benefits is THE ROYAL FAMILY. A vulgar celebration of inequality. 😢
Forget the triple lock if Labour get in will they raise the tax free allowance threshold straight answer to a straight question
My friends had to drive me to AnE, after a caller rang me up and tried talking me , while in a vulnerable confused state, into cancelling the ambulance , after the first person I spoke to said it wouldn't be long.
They'll fund pensions partly thru cutting disability benefits, and they would get away with it too, because not enough people in the media ever think it could be them, disability isn't sexy enough, not enough people believe or care about the issue sadly.
I blame brexit for this LOL, not the shiteload of illegal migrants bleeding our country dry that the EU are sending us, or the £millions been spent housing and feeding and clothing the criminal migrants, oh the £millions used on ferrying them here, oh and the £millions spent protecting the muzlims from us crazy brittish people
what state pension.. they expect you to work till your dead
The Government are now passing legislation to spy on pensioners bank accounts & abolishing the link to pensions. Ni contributions. Is there plan to means test the state pension ? Work & save too much .. sorry no state pension.
When tony blair took office they were spending 8%of gdp ON THE NHS, when he left office it was 6% gdp now after 14 odd years of the Tories guess what it us DOWN TO ABOUT 2%gdp so he is telling HUGE LIES SAYING THEY ARE SPENDING RECORD AMOUNTS OF MONEY ON THE NHS THEY SHOULD ALL BE JAILED FOR WHAT THEY HAVE DONE TO THE NHS BUT WE KNOW WHY ? THEY WANT TO PRIVATISE IT
Total garbage!
is that Trumps love child lol
My mum suffers from repeated occurrences of acute cholecystis. The first time this happened she was literally howling with pain; my dad phoned for an ambulance and was told it would be at least a six hour wait because they were so busy. My dad got my mum into the car, driving under severe duress because my poor mum was screaming in agony and took us to A&E, leaving me with mum. We were waiting there for 22 hours on metal low back chairs, with no pain relief before we got to see a doctor, even though I made it clear that Mum had several serious co-morbities that put her life at risk. It was only when the area matron came back on duty for her next shift that she realised we were still there and went to get a doctor to see her. That was just one of a long line of nine and ten hour waits to see a doctor in the surgical assessment unit. Now we don’t even bother to phone for an ambulance, just drive ourselves. Our NHS is broken and I can’t see how it can be fixed.
Starmer will be unable to do anything without the express approval of Rachel Reeves. Reeves is a traditional economist-type who will follow Treasury modelling and guidance.
Sunak Tories Serving the country or robbing the county ? all politicians are the same ( robbers, liars, cheating the people to make themselves & friends richer, your poorer ), so dont waste your time, they evetualy sneak up on you and betray the people with poverty causing polcies and inflation
Work until ya drop, and if you want disability allowances, tough, work through the pain. Anyway, critical issue: Vote in the locals! We can't assume that a massive Labour majority is already in the bag, as Starmer must secure a huge swing just to get a majority of ONE. Complacency in the locals is dangerous as we must send a very strong message, now! THE most important thing is to get the Tori£s out, THEN work to change the electoral system. The polls show that we want the TORI£S OUT, but we need to keep them OUT and that can only be done through Electoral Reform. FPTP was devised by the Ruling Class to keep the Ruling Class in power. It's not going to be easy to break the system that has given the Ruling Class power for 72% of the last 200 years. Voting apathy, or complacency by thinking Labour already have it in the bag, leads to electile dysfunction, which could let the denatured Tory semen slip back into orifice. Grab your blasted Voter ID. Get the Vote OUT. VOTE. VOTE TO GET THE TORI£S OUT. VOTE WITH FORCE TO KEEP THEM OUT!!
If David Cameron wasn’t swanning around in a £42 million pound plane it would help. There is no need for that.
The criminally corrupt Conservative government have made this a third world country.
What is Sunak doing about this billions lost in corruption from PPE.
If your a mate of this Conservative toxic government you are above the law.
Every nation, gets the government it deserves. Keep voting Tory, that's what you get. It's never been obvious to the peasantry, but the Tory Party only represents those with wealth. Yet the peasants keep voting for them.

You forgot how you voted, what a crock of shit, how can you forget?
You voted tory despite what they are doing to our country and its people.
Bring back gordon brown.
First and last time on here.
I was quoted 9 hours for an ambulance…. apparently that's not unusual😢
bad enough as it is with old people who have worked hard most of their lives,The Tories be expected to send old people who 80+ years old back to employment again,My grandparents wont be able to do much for work,Gran has something wrong with her heart,Has to take a lot of medication for it,Grandad suffers with dementia,Nan be luckly enough to do the house work for a few hours before getting very tired due to old age health probems,Also know many other old people who 80+ years old,Cant really see them also going back to employment again as well,This news is disgusting
Put the pension in state control !!! Oh hang on
Their Thinking of putting state pension up to 75..I don't agree with that.
After paying in for life, no money back
And all your babies might be eaten if you vote Labour
