Re: YE..HAAAA
Yes £600+ every 4 weeks is not to be sniffed at but you have paid for this in a lifetime’s NI contributions. It has nothing whatsoever to do with Boris Johnson, his government has just removed the pensions triple lock thereby negating a Cameron promise.

Last year I took out my first pension payment in cash, threw the notes on the bed and just rolled in that lovely money.

Enjoy one of the lowest state pensions in Europe. Its already been eaten away by rampant inflation and let's not forget the government reneging on the triple lock promise.

Happy first pension day, Steve, it gets better when the Mrs gets hers. Double bubble.
Re: YE..HAAAA
Don't forget the other benefits of being an old fart - your £200 heating allowance, bus pass, the £10 bonus and, wait for it, the continued opportunity to submit faeces samples to check if you have bowel cancer. Plus if you look old too, some people offer you their seats on the bus.

I put X for no publicity when I was about to receive my first windfall.
There's no denying I've been thoroughly underwhelmed ever since.

Re: YE..HAAAA
The only thing that annoys me about my pension is that it is now classed as a benefit. No its f###ing not a benefit, it is a gvt run pension scheme that I've paid into for 50 years. My personal pensions are not benefits so why is my old age pension now classed as a benefit?

Even if you've haven't done a days work in your life you are guaranteed the following amount per week once you hit pension age:Loyal Supporter wrote: ↑Thu Apr 14, 2022 11:59 amEnjoy one of the lowest state pensions in Europe. Its already been eaten away by rampant inflation and let's not forget the government reneging on the triple lock promise.
Single people: £182.60
Couple: £278.70
As I said, you don't have to have done a single day of work for to win this jackpot. All you have to do is be of pensionable age.
It's one of the most generous rates in the known universe, never mind Europe

Re: YE..HAAAA
The thanks I gave to Boris was tongue in cheek Cleggy,my wife is only 62 and we really should be on double bubble pension,but the Cameron/Clegg partnership stole 6 years pension money off her...which when you think about it is a crime, I'll be 70 before I have the luxury of a double bubble state pension....thank god for private pensions or me and the wife would probably have to work till we were almost dead.
