Politicians and journalists constantly lie about the #money paid to British #Pensioners.
Politicians say that pensioners receive £221.20 a week to live on.
That is a terminological inexactitude. It’s not true. It is a convenient piece of misinformation.
Millions of British Pensioners actually receive the basic state pension of £169.50 a week. That’s £8,814 a year. And that is supposed to pay for accommodation, heat, light, clothing, transport, clothes and everything else. Unlike Starmer and his chums, not many pensioners are given free clothes and spectacles.
Pensioners everywhere are in debt because Starmer’s Government is too busy paying out huge sums to trade union members who went on strike for more money. (Belligerent junior doctors – who should have been sacked for unprofessional behaviour are getting a massive and absurd 22% pay rise.)
So, why the confusion about what pensions are paid to the elderly?
Just under ten years ago the State pension paid to retirees who had worked all their lives and who paid taxes and national insurance payments so that they would receive a pension, was changed.
New pensioners receive the `new’ pension of £221.20 a week. Lucky for them – though there aren’t all that many of them.
But the oldest pensioners, the ones in their mid to late 70s and in their 80s and 90s, receive the smaller pension of £169.50.See less
