And the fares should be subsidised by the Government too.

Now the liars (tories) are looking to pay Hitachi £5Billion. Wake up folks. They are taking the piss (& your pensions). See the bit about pensions well I’ve no idea if any of this is right enough but maybe someone with a better understanding of how it works will be able to explain. I read this on Facebook but like I say I don’t know if it’s right or completely wrong..... Sorry it seems to have come out in huge writing I don’t know how to change that on my phone PLEASE PASS THIS AROUND, UNTIL EVERY ONE HAS HAD THE OPPORTUNITY TO READ IT... THIS IS SURELY SOMETHING WE ALL NEED TO THINK ABOUT!!!! THE ONLY THING WRONG WITH THE GOVERNMENT'S CALCULATION OF AVAILABLE PENSION IS THAT THEY FORGOT TO FIGURE IN ALL THE PEOPLE WHO DIED BEFORE THEY EVER COLLECTED OLD AGE PENSION. WHERE DID ALL THAT MONEY GO? Remember, not only did you and I contribute to our Pension, our employer did, too. It totalled 15% of your income before taxes. If you averaged only £15 000 over your working life, that's close to £220,500. Read that again. Did you see anywhere that the Government paid in one single penny? We are talking about the money you and your employer put in a Government bank to ensure that you and I would have a retirement pension from the money we put in, it was not money that the Government had any right to spend elsewhere. Now they've started to call the money we paid in an 'entitlement' when we reach the age to take it back. If you calculate the future invested value of £2500 per year (yours & your employer's contribution) at a simple 5% interest (that's less than what the govt. pays on the money that it borrows from overseas), after 49 years of working you'd have £892,919.98. If you took out only 3% per year, you'd receive £26,787.60 per year and it would last better than 30 years (that means until you're 95 if you retire at age 65) and that's with no interest paid on that final amount on deposit! If you bought an annuity with the money and it paid 4% per year, you'd have a lifetime income of £1976.40 per month. THE CROOKS IN GOVERNMENT HAVE PULLED OFF A BIGGER ROBBERY THAN THE GREAT TRAIN ROBBERS EVER DID. Entitlement!!?? My foot !! IT'S MY MONEY!! I paid IN cash for my pension. Just because they borrowed the money to spend on other things, that doesn't make my pension some kind of charity or handout!! Remember MP's benefits? --- free healthcare, outrageous retirement packages, 67 days paid holidays, three weeks paid holidays, unlimited paid sick days. Now that really should be called welfare entitlements, yet they have the nerve to call my O A P retirement payments entitlements? We're "broke" and the government can't help our own OAPs, our ex-service personnel, our orphans or our homeless Yet in the past few years we have provided aid to Haiti, Chile, Turkey, India, Pakistan, etc., etc., etc. Literally, BILLIONS of Pounds !!! But they can't help our own citizens! Our retired seniors living on a 'fixed old age pension have to beg social services to receive additional aid, while our government and religious organizations pour hundreds of billions of £££ tons of food to foreign countries! They call the old age pension an entitlement even though most of us have been paying for it all our working lives, and now, when it's time for us to collect, the government is running out of money. Why did the government borrow from it in the first place? It was supposed to be in a securely locked box, not to be used as part of the Government's general funds. Sad, isn't it, that some people won't have the guts to forward this. I'm in the category with guts enough to do it - - - and I just did. I hope some of you will do the same.

Thunderstruck Posted June 7, 2018 Share Posted June 7, 2018 Not going to quote the large text above but the section that said “the money that you and your employer put into a government bank” should warn the reader that the claim is nonsense. National Insurance is, in effect, a Tax not a contribution to a pension fund. Pensions are paid out of the government’s “current account”.

Cameron did it to be greener than pro-nuclear Labour. The nation needs a mix of new nuclear and green energy. The investment in the new plant in Wales is a huge boost to the economy there and the UK. Scotland's nuclear sites should be renewed for future use too. The real scandal was selling off British Nuclear to the private sector for tuppence. Now these plants will be run not by a state company but a set of private firms. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
