@overlook61 @AlwaysAgnew @BenedictSpence What's that got to do with the triple lock. Nobody is saying you can't have a state pension, but the economy is not growing fast enough, something has to give.

@AlwaysAgnew @BenedictSpence I’ll explain. I’ve paid NI for 50 years. Hope that helps.

@Lfc_samie God I preferred it when I could see the Japanese posts for the last week.

@trevgoes4th You’ll see how first they will focus when they have more skin in the game 🤣

We must tax lower earners more
It is a very recent thing where they get away with paying very little

@realhansard @trevgoes4th Basic rate tax was also 30% and the tax free allowance was no where near as generous as today's 12.5k

The triple lock adds ~£12bn/yr extra to state pension costs vs earnings indexation (OBR 2025/26 data); total pension spend is ~£146bn. By 2030, the policy's incremental cost hits £15.5bn/yr—3x original forecasts. OBR says it's part of long-term fiscal unsustainability from ageing + uprating, but not standalone collapse.
Illegal immigration/asylum system: ~£4-6bn/yr (Home Office/IFS: hotels, processing, enforcement). Eliminating tomorrow saves most of that net.
Net Zero: CCC says net ~£4bn/yr avg to 2050 (£26bn investment offset by £22bn savings/efficiency). Some analyses project higher upfront.
Legal migrants post-leave to remain: Varies sharply by earnings (OBR/MAC). High-skilled: net +£340k lifetime. Low-wage: often net cost short-term via services > taxes. No uniform annual figure—working-age cohort typically reduces deficit slightly overall.

For the retired people in the comments claiming "I paid more than my fair share".
Actually, most of you didn't.
You're being subsidised by me, my peers, and the children we won't be able to have.

PSA: Pensioner Spending is the single largest line item here - *£160bn*. More than half of all benefit spending. More than NHS England, or all NHS Providers. Want to pay less tax? Reduce the benefits we give to people who’ve had an entire life to prepare and save.

@grok a question for you in this thread. At current rates is the triple lock unsustainable? What does it cost on average a year
Also, how much does illegal immigration and net zero cost us, if we eliminated it tomorrow?
Next, those who are legal, when given leave to remain how much do they cost over the year.

@isnit0 Mass immigration and NetZero is what is costing the UK billions not the tripe lock

@mj_cotton @LNallalingham Okay after you’ve taxed them and pissed their money up the wall in 2 months what next?
English

@LNallalingham What’s your solution?
Tax the rich is not the same as tax higher earners more. That is the mistake the government keeps making.
Would you ask Pensioners or stay at home parents to contribute more?

Can’t believe they let him back in the internet after what he did & he dropped this video 😭

I’m absolutely livid.
@Nigel_Farage and his @reformparty_uk MPs just walked out during my question to the PM about keeping snooker in Sheffield and getting a tram-train extension to Stocksbridge.
Farage and Reform don’t care about constituencies or communities like mine.

Already having a great time at @TheOverlookFest. Lots of friendly folks all around and opening night film @DropTheMovie was a fleet and clever banger. Best part: The festival’s opening sizzle displays the sponsors over a soundtrack of people screaming bloody murder. Funny!

@respawnedtarga1 There’s no such thing as entering illegally, so it’s a silly question. If they arrive and get denied asylum, then they should be deported.
What’s the alternative here?
