The government earlier this year indicated it may raise the state pension age for millions of workers in the next Parliament, if re-elected.

It is important we oppose this and send a clear message to Westminster. We are calling on all parties to scrap any plans for state pension age rises, now, or in the future.

Will you add your name to the petition calling for further state pension age rises to be scrapped?

Food for thought by Dr Richard Kemp (Opposition Leader Liverpool City Council) :
Should the pensions age rise in the UK and worldwide? ▶️
All our third age citizens should be able to have a decent, warm and comfortable retirement but that raises basic questions about how the state and the individual will pay for it▶️

Listening to Rest is Politics talking about ageing population. Apparently when the old age pension was introduced, there were 12 working people for every retired person, and now that figure is 2.5.

Controversial opinion: we should not be afraid of raising the statutory retirement age as life expectancy increases. In exchange, the state should commit to ensuring life expectancy is neither a postcode or demographic lottery.
