There has to be a case for requiring better off pensioners to share the pain in some way. Quite how this would best be done I don't know, but it can't be right just to rule it out without seeing if anything meaningful, can be done to ease the burden elsewhere, especially for the most vulnerable in society.

I wish there was also a way of making those companies and individuals who irresponsibly ran up vast debt and were allowed to walk away from most of it, pay it back but that doesn't seem to me to be a priority for any government.
