As a pensioner I will consider leaving the country and returning illegally and live for free.

[Jfalways]

Why should a single person living on their own pay the same as a family??

[slumber]

There would be plenty of money if we weren't spending billions on people who shouldn't be here

[stevewright]

I'm a pensioner, and I honestly think I'll be better off in prison. It's sad to think that I've worked all my life as a Carpenter, and paid my way all throughout it, and strangers come into this country, and have paid Nothing into the system, come before me.

Can someone please correct that man in the blue shirt on how the State Pension system works - that, contrary to what he has declared, it is NOT 'free money'. Pensioners have paid into the system through National Insurance all their working lives.

A society is measured by how it cares for its elderly citizens. Labour will be judged by its treatment of our pensioners and will not be forgiven or forgotten.

Let pensioners live in peace in their final years. STOP TARGETING PENSIONERS. GET LABOUR OUT BRING IN REFORM. REFORM CARE FOR GREAT COUNTRY AND BRITISH PEOPLE.

[MAHMED-sh]

Those pensioners who have contributed most of their lives should not be penalised.

[Kinadnuf]

Never call comrade Starmer “sir”. He’s a loathsome liar.

[martynsmithson]

Only a coward would pick on a pensioner.

[Headwind-]

ffs leave us poor, ill, disabled pensioners alone to die in peace . . . . . .

[samsungcrossland]

I live on my own and get single discount on council tax I'm in my 50s .I hate labour big time

[carllockpick]

How about, stopping heating allowance on second homes, for the mps.

[j.]

Well, they didnt con me.I voted like an intelligent person for Reform.

As an active 75 year old pensioner who worked and paid his taxes for over 48 years it makes me feel so proud and special to have been chosen by Kier Stomer to be a part of the demographic chosen to spearhead the fight to "stabilise the economy" through the removal of my winter fuel payment.
Watching the daily arrival of so much cultural enrichment and diversity is really heartwarming too knowing that our Oh so caring establishment and political elite are falling over themselves to provide these people with EVERYTHING they need for a comfortable life to the tune of £8 million a day, part paid for from the additional tax I now pay from a very meagre occupational pension due to Fiscal drag!
Our newly appointed leaders declared that "The adults are back in charge!"
I I believe and suggest that the lunatics are running the asylum! It's an absolute disgrace.

[neilfoster]

How about stop funding 4 and 5 star hotels for unwelcome arrivals, how about that!!!!

[WalterGarvin]

In Greece who are considered a poor country the 2nd poorest country in Europe pay their pensioners £323 a week Britain the 6th richest country in the world pay their pensioners £221 a week you couldn’t make it up.

[martynsmith]

Not only pensioners but also single working people living on their own.

[saphire]

Disgraceful the pensioners who helped make this country what it was 🤬

[jenniferwilgar]

I can't believe this guy! So ignorant and disrespectful to our history and culture.
