Some people retire at 50, so technically become pensioners (i.e. living off a pension... does that give them the right to not pay their taxes).

The law's the law, and we all have to pay taxes. I'd like to cherry pick the taxes I pay but unfortunately I can't. I don't see why older people should be able to either.
Could you live on a pension when the local council has put up your tax by six times the increase to your fixed income?With the increases in gas,electricity,water to find as well.I am not looking forward to retirement at all.IF the pension was a decent one that took in account all the increases for all then I would have less sympathy.
