It’s interesting that the government are examining why 50+ year olds are semi or fully retired now. The System is short of workers ,and the 50’s are skilled. I read that they want to push those back to work who may even be semi disabled or ill and are claiming. I am very close to 60 now ,so in that group. My view there is that they - GVT.- are totally unaware of how our generation have worked. I know there are ‘office ‘ workers in there, but back in the late 70’s and the 80’s there was a much,much bigger manual set of industry. Factories,tradesmen ,miners etc. Myself,for about 41 years a butcher ,operating in retail, factories,slaughter and catering. Damned hard work. I was getting tired and suffering from ( a few years actually) bad backs ,bad elbows,bad knees ,too many hours of work with no breaks etc etc. And less staff. In a two words - bl**dy knackered! And the pension age is up!

At the beginning,my career teacher said that you went to work,paid tax and NI,and when needed, you got sick pay,or dole , medical treatment and then a pension. That was the simple deal. Now I am poorly, I am claiming what I’ve paid for under The Deal. Simple. Not being political by the way. Just memories.

I paid into a private pension ,under Thatcher’s Bunch. Pound in, and a million out was the idea Told me to buy a house ,which in fairness I did,and glad about. Trouble is ,it’s serious illness that will allow me to claim what I have genuinely contributed to. But I won’t go on…

I’ll nail what I can.

[grenfell]

Rusty could you explain the 50% road tax reduction please? How does it work and what can you and what can't you do? We have a SORNed vehicle but that has to stay in the garage.
