Life Expectancy coming down. 11:52 - Jan 17 with 2880 viewsHCMC

So we can assume the age of receiving the old age state pension will no longer rise?

All parties have felt the need and proposed to raise the age so this is not a politically motivated post.

Various reports in the last year or two have stated within the UK life expectancy is actually coming down.

Here is another.

I d have thought many on here would be pleased given the contempt they have for older people

Maybe given the cost, older people should be culled as we re living too long

No chance. The main reason pensionable age is going up is because there are more and more people drawing from a pool which isnt expanding quickly enough - simply because people dont save enough. Youre supposed to save around 30% of salary throughout working age on average.. no hope of that for the majority.

Many, many pension schemes are in huge shortfalls too - Carillion being an apt case in point

Many young people today are unable to get on the property ladder let alone build a property portfolio.

There are more young people, up to their middle 30’s, living with their parents today than there ever has been.

The war generation must be turning in their graves at the yuppie generation they spawned, they voted for greed by voting for Thatcher and Blair, they paid themselves too much, retired too early, they gave themselves too many holidays, they sold off the countries housing stock, they sold off the countries nationalised industries, they were all drink and drugs, all free love, no morals, they turned away from religion.
They had free education and health, they had benefits and services but did not want to pay taxes and got rid of everything that made the country great at the alter of selfish greed, they have left other generations up the creek without a paddle.

I agree, currently I'm thinking 67 should be the age of culling but I will look at that age again in a few years time :)
