The idea apparently is that by taking out the complexities and costs associated with means testing etc., more could be paid out to pensioners irrespective of their contributions.
Does this sound like a good idea?

In your link above, go down the page to the James Landale Analysis column, he says:-
"In other words, this policy is work in progress, it's not going to happen for a long while and it will only affect future pensioners."
If the above is true it is going to make some pensioners very angry indeed, and so it should.
