Re: Pensions
Seems more than fair for those that no longer live here.
Pos someone will explain more?
Think the Windrush generation that stayed and added much should have priority over those that got out.

Re: Pensions
Those of us who left the UK paid into the system at the same rate as every other person.
If you go to love in the USA, or any EU country after retirement you will get the full pension with all the increases.
But for some odd reason not here in Oz. UK pension people say they cannot afford it.
What has this to do with the Windrush people?


Happy daze John in Oz.
Life is too short to blend in.
