@KneesupG @Investor_Miller @HeatherBo63 @Randoms141884 Both lots are scroungers, idiot. We’re cutting other services to pay more and more to the benefit that is pension. Your NI contribution is meaningless. It’s all a Ponzi scheme.

@BemeBoy @Investor_Miller @HeatherBo63 @Randoms141884 Hey you fucking prick, I'm still paying into that pot & I'll bet my contribution is a lot bigger than yours you cunt. Instead of blaming hard working people who have paid their NI " stamp" without fail, why not question those who aren't & haven't. 9 million people on benefits.

Don't want to get into a bun fight here but why am I reading posts from younger people complaining about people getting a state pension? Errrr, this is how it has always been. When we're young, we work hard for years and then we reach an age where we receive a pension and it's the next generation's turn. What is it with a lot of younger people nowadays (god, I sound like my dad!), they want it all and would be happy if we just kicked the bucket when we retire. I receive my state pension in November this year and I'm bloomin' well not going to feel guilty about it. I would never have complained about this when I was younger and working full time. Never even considered it.

@Eyeswideopen69 So we will become a tax haven too. Awesome.

Speaking of GDP per capita. Ireland went from 27th in the World to 3rd after joining the EU. The UK has gone from sixth to 27th since leaving. Thoughts chump?

@russellmoore @AjaxAsteroid @Arron_banks You didn’t pay enough for it. It’s a Ponzi scheme.

@AjaxAsteroid @Arron_banks ...entitlement to which is earned with over 35 years of NI contributions. What's your point?

We need to look after our elderly, they paid vast amounts of NI & no one told them it was a political Ponzi scheme. This country needs to cut regulation to the bone, reduce the size of the state & go after the 8 million on benefits.

@danazzo3 @Langworthy_47 @AjaxAsteroid @Arron_banks You’re completely right. Sadly the entire political spectrum agrees on luxury boomer communism.

@Langworthy_47 @AjaxAsteroid @Arron_banks Claim until age 70, and you've wiped out all your contributions back to your 38th birthday. That's without including inflation, which means its more like 30th. Claim until age 75, and you've wiped out everything you ever put in. That's on average salary. So half are worse.

@Kat071014 @AjaxAsteroid @Arron_banks It’s true. You can blame all the parties, especially the tories who made it suicidal with the triple lock. Nobody will fix it though, until it’s far too late.

@AjaxAsteroid @Arron_banks Well in that case everyone was lied to since WW2. They were told by the labour government they were paying national insurance for their pension.

@RagTopHat @Christo72867345 @Tinebobagain You’re arguing with muppets. I know it’s hairpulling. That the median voter is this uneducated on how the Ponzi scheme works

No, that’s just wrong. The UK state pension was never a personal pot and never an investment fund. It has always been a transfer system. National Insurance gives you entitlement, not ownership. Your contributions were never saved or invested for you. They were used to pay the people already retired at the time. There was no big pool of money being built up and then “misused”. That system simply never existed. The “contributions” language was political packaging to make a tax feel like insurance. It doesn’t change how it actually works. If it were a real pot, the money would be there with your name on it. It isn’t. The only reason pensions get paid is because current workers are funding them right now.

Restore supporter. Another one. They aren’t doing themselves any favours by going after pensioners instead of the real enemy. The greens will win. Shame.

@HeatherBo63 This bitch calls herself “libertarian” while demanding the pension (benefit) to boomers to increase faster than the economy grows. Which means by taxing people. Sums up how retarded the median uk voter is. Where are the actual libertarians/ fiscal conservatives. Do they exist?

@janeemilybacon2 @Investor_Miller @HeatherBo63 @Randoms141884 Boomers whine about getting free money they did not pay enough into for.

@Investor_Miller @HeatherBo63 @Randoms141884 I never put down the young until they started whining and whinging and blaming pensioners who pay more tax now than the 18-30 group. None of you are Peter Pan, you’ll all get older

@KneesupG @Investor_Miller @HeatherBo63 @Randoms141884 There is no fucking pot you mug. State pension is a benefit. You’re taking our money that you never paid in. Ponzi scheme

@Investor_Miller @HeatherBo63 @Randoms141884 Stop bleating, work hard, pay into the pot & you get your share at the appropriate time. Just as its always been. There's no short cut, no right to the money without the contributions. Thats how it works.

@SyndiTypo @joel_mcalary925 @HeatherBo63 Boomers are literally the most entitled generation. You didn’t pay enough tax for your pensions. There is no pot. It’s a benefit. And now you want us to pay for it while it increases faster than wages.

@joel_mcalary925 @HeatherBo63 People have financially planned their whole lives with the promise of a state pension funded by National Insurance contributions made during their working lives. If you think it needs changing - go ahead - petition for it. And yes - I do think many young people are entitled.

@Steven73253802 @HeatherBo63 @AngryBritbong Fuck the state pension. We’re paying more in tax, and cutting other services so boomers can get an increase above economic growth. Most entitled generation in history. Should’ve saved for it like the rest of us will need to.

@HeatherBo63 @AngryBritbong Can't believe you're getting replies like this. Does that troll not have family that are recieving pensions?

@VictorSageDD @KiplingChrist @ForzaScunthonia @VerhofstadtQ Why should one group be entitled to the magic money tree? Do you consider not giving every child free money the same as killing them then. Be consistent. Learn some personal fucking responsibility.

@KiplingChrist @ForzaScunthonia @VerhofstadtQ Another eugenist advocating for killing g the disabled

@notanerable @accountingetc Guy’s a cunt. No point arguing. Most entitled generation and they want more of government spending to go to welfare for them. State pension is welfare.

@accountingetc What part is the delusion? Explain to me which part is false, show your working, everything I have said is a fact, I literally gave you numbers, are you disputing them?

Young people with no power and influence trying to blame older people with no power and influence for the dire state the economy is in. 🙄

@Steady5d @jone45619 @DoreenRuth14504 Save the waste and spend it on infrastructure. Not fucking piling it to boomers. State pension, which is a benefit btw, is already the biggest bit of spending. More than defence and education combined .

@jone45619 @DoreenRuth14504 The younger ones are being manipulated, divide and conquer tactics. There’s enough money if government just stopped wasting it.

I am due to retire in 5 years. Have not worked in a company that until quite recently offered any type of pension. I paid NI, I understand the younger folk are fed up but we didn't all have money or knowledge about pensions. Stop blaming us for being alive

@NormanLeedsPhD @ReemAmirIbrahim You’re still deflecting. You haven’t answered how you pay for it when, it’s increasing faster than the economy grows & that has a smaller ratio of working people? Ponzi scheme. In any case more of GDP going to luxury boomer communism will implode the UK 1st

@BemeBoy @ReemAmirIbrahim The state pension has always been paid for by those in work, via NI and income tax. Today's pensioners paid for your NHS delivery and lifetime care, child benefit, education - and for your parents' state pensions. It is a social contract, which will not be broken.

Government pensions are a scam. Younger workers are paying more and more to fund a system that is mathematically impossible to sustain. Would you scrap the triple lock?

@IPreece @DWeller50261 @simonwatt85 Luxury boomer communism. These old fuckers are just the same as the leftists.

@DWeller50261 @simonwatt85 That would entail doubling State Pension. An extra £150bn and rising each year thanks to the triple lock. Your measures to "achieve it" would barely scratch the surface.

The National Living Wage is right now, £12.21 per hour. In a 35 hour week you will earn £427.35 so in a year it’s £22,222 Presumably they call it a living wage because that gives you enough to live on. A pensioner gets £10,000 less than that. Greedy blighters.

@MManuella611 @TrimaxionAI @blue0161445 @simonwatt85 THERE IS NO POT. STATE PENSION IS A BENEFIT. You didn’t pay shit. It’s the working paying for all of it. Entitled shits had the best economy to save for. Remortgage your house and pay for it.

They must NOT spend the money we put in for pensions on other Foreign causes of no interest to this country. No more Foreign Aid. Benefits system to be completely overhauled and each claimant to be thoroughly analysed with those scheming the system or not entitled to be there, cancelled. Stop the benefits for scroungers arriving daily, too. And concentrate on this country and its people. That would leave plenty of money to maintain the pensions that people pay into every month.

@simonwatt85 @Ohpalis @YorkieYO Yeah via your private pension. You’re begging on the state pension. Muppet. Give me my tax back, that’s paying for your gammon ass’ pension.

@Ohpalis @YorkieYO It’s up to you. Work hard and you can retire when you want.

@NormanLeedsPhD @ReemAmirIbrahim What kind of deflection is this? Yes those on benefits CAN pay taxes. That’s what the state pension is, a benefit. & the fastest growing one. What’s so hard to understand, doc? The state is making the working folk pay for increasing amounts of boomers.

@BemeBoy @ReemAmirIbrahim 9m pensioners are also taxpayers. Try harder.

@StoneAgeDodger @ManOfKent15 Only a retard is incapable of understanding that benefits spending (yes the pension is a benefit) growing to a larger and larger % of gdp isn’t sustainable.

@ManOfKent15 First they came for the retirment age, then the triple lock. Now they come for the none means test and soon your private pension if you dont speak out now.

The 1946 National Insurance Act was called 'the best insurance policy the British people ever had' by the Labour government at that time. It entitled pensioners to a contribution-based pension that would not be means-tested. To renege on that contract now would be one of the biggest betrayals of the British people ever.
