Women

[dodgy_surname]

Working till 67 total piss take
The French told their government to fnck off
We’re a soft country accepting that
My political point today.

Why just women, Dodgy ?

 

[Willie Mcgrotty]

Why just women, Dodgy ?

Think the jump from 60 to 67

 

[April13th1970]

Don't see the issue, they wanted equality

 

[Tangerine phil]

But it was extended twice without warning for women and the DWP have been found guilty by the Parliamentary Ombudsman of MALADMINISTRATION which sounds pretty bad to me.

I opened a door for a woman yesterday, she looked at me as if I was mad

Disgraceful....

They should work until they are 70!

No. Women pension age equalised years back. The appeal to return it to 60 failed.

To be fair, women live longer than men, so equalisation is fair enough

Regarding the French, as I understand it, they pay a higher percentage in pension contributions towards their state pension than we do (plus more tax towards the health system etc - hence it's better)... therefore their country can afford for them to retire slightly earlier than us. We haven't paid enough in, compared to life expectancy, for decades - which is why we're in such a mess and pension ages had to be raised. Talking to some of my elderly female customers, they just don't realise how fortunate they were to be able to receive a state pension at 60. This "I've worked hard all my life, I deserve it " idea just isn't based on logic or sound economic principles. My mother in law is one. I honestly don't think she believes my wife will have to work to 67 to receive her state pension.

Was the wife not expecting you to be throwing her out of the house after all these years??

57 for me on the NHS 95 scheme, could actually go any time after 50.

I'm also not a woman.

But you could be if you wanted to be according to the Green Party.

Yes but with big reductions apart from special officers ....I think ?
BTW I'm 56 and work in the nhs

 

[poolseasider]

68 for those under 48 to receive state pension in 2044!

 

[Wizaard]

Yet life expectancy is plateauing, and in the North West, decreasing.

Yes well it is fairly unusual to see a bloke holding open a trap-door in the hope that a passing women might be inclined to fall down it.

I tend to think in the main once into the 70's most people exist rather than live. Days out to the GP or hospital.
