Thank you Richard. I appreciate your comment as apparently, I don't need or should have any support.

It's not great being unemployed when you are not used to it, is it! This is my first time out of work and the first time in my life I have lost my independence, boy it's tough! Given that the government keep upping the retirement age, I will need a job as I will probably won't get any pension until I'm about 80 the way things are going!

It's unfortunate that there doesn't seem to be much respect for people in our situation, we aren't asking for any more than anyone else, yet we get less than most!

I hope all good things come your way, I have a feeling they will!

I am sure we will see many biased opinions on the BBC and everywhere else before 23rd, let's hope people vote out in the hope of a better future.
