'Good people' giving inflation busting pension increases. Thoughts?
Surprised you've not made comments on this, what with all the good work you've been doing by raising awareness of their plight.

The Tories were in power when the Grenfell fire happened. Once again you’ve shown yourself as an awful person that will use anything to get your silly little points across. Just like your horrible post on the Southport thread, this is not something to try and win points on.Taking some responsibility at last?
The cackles of the public tired of his "it wiz Chelsea" defence must have broken through via a focus group for that sort of humility to be on display.

I'm sensing a fair old amount of bullspit* in these figures also. Armenia for instance would have no one left.That pension figure for Spain can't be right, surely. That figure's way above the average national salary. Way, way above.
What's it in the UK? £2K national average salary and pension less than half?
@Old Blue 2 has been on the Old Monk Rum whilst collating that info, I reckon.I'm sensing a fair old amount of bullspit* in these figures also. Armenia for instance would have no one left.
Shhh, it's nearly half ten.@Old Blue 2 has been on the Old Monk Rum whilst collating that info, I reckon.
Yeah, I was surprised by that...No Germany or Austria in there for some reason?
It's called 'checking information on t'internet'.@Old Blue 2 has been on the Old Monk Rum whilst collating that info, I reckon.
I'm just beginning to get going at this time of night. I don't start writing before now. I'm a night person from way back when. In my youth I would only be going on stage for the first set in the night clubs around this time.Shhh, it's nearly half ten.
It wasn't reference to your good self.I'm just beginning to get going at this time of night. I don't start writing before now. I'm a night person from way back when. In my youth I would only be going on stage for the first set in the night clubs around this time.
Maybe good people want a government to prioritise working people, over those out of work in receipt of benefits?
