Don’t Tax The Over 65s

This is about having a fair taxation system in the UK.

State-Pension-Raid

The Story So far

Is There A Plan?

All of us in the UK must have some aspiration to grow our economy, and eradicate debt. We may also be interested in thinking about new economic models that create growth. After all, continued low growth and reduced tax receipts is only ever going to limit public services and push for yet more tax rises.

Perhaps if we really get things right, then not only should all pensions for the over 65's be completely untaxed, we might also be able to push for public/private wage equality. Imagine that!

Now let's finish with this…. many think of the state pension as an entitlement, but Ministers see it as a benefit. We beg to differ, as do many millions of ordinary people.

Sadly, if Government had done their jobs right in the first place, our Country wouldn't be in such a mess, and so different decisions could have been made.

There's a lesson here.
