Quote:
You can't have a pension scheme that will always go up higher than wages to pay for it
A 2.5% increase on £240 a week is nowhere near a 2.5% increase on £500 a week, which is being reported in various places as the 'average' UK wage (some say it's over £600)

If you want more people of working age paying tax to fund things you need to create jobs, not give the ones you already have to AI or scare businesses into moving abroad.



edit: make that £750 a week average
