Just listened to the lady from Age UK there are currently 12 million pensioners, 1.4 of those on pension credit with another 800k who could claim but dont, so that leaves 10 million pensioners who Labour think are too well off to get the payment, 2 million of those earn just a few pounds above the threshold in some cases 6.00.... ...  |
i didn't become a pensioner until february, so basically winter was over
