New Labour? Baah!

08/07/2008

This year is the centenary of the Basic State Pension. Once it was 25% of the national average wage, now it is only 13%. This government promised us a fair pension and the end of means-tested benefits.

 

They lied, now 20% of the elderly are living in poverty, either for fuel or food. Why? A pensioner could live very well on an MP's expenses New Labour? Baah!
