Gordon Brown imposed a tax on private pensions that has made thousands of pension providers go out of business. In turn causing thousands of people paying into those pensions to lose out in retirement with no pension. Some had paid into these pensions for forty years and lost every thing. Yet Gordon Brown and Tony Blair calmly tell the Iraqi people ''don't worry we will give you a 100 million pounds to help rebuild Iraq''. Do you really think giving this amount of money to the Iraqis over and above those in this country that have sweted their Bo???ks off for a pension the goverment urged them to pay into in the first place.

Of-course he should - but he won't! The help the government are giving those cheated out of their pensions is pitiful and many fall outside even this abortion of a "help plan". As for Iraq before you invest money in the country you have to have peace and you certainly just don't hand over 100 million to politicians it will go straight in their pockets. The man is an idiot!!

I don't think I have read even on 'Answers' such unmitigated c*ap as I just read from 'Bob M'. People who have lost their pensions or had them greatly reduced are as a result of Gordon Brown's pension tax policy. The descendants of the people who 'milked' the colonies are sitting in Westminster and now they are 'milking' us.
When 'Bob M' grows up hopefully he'll learn something.

You must remember our tax money is for the benefit of foreignors, not for us. Those people without pension should count themselves lucky they live in a former colonial power and that they once ruled over the world. The government does not have enough money to pay for those pensions, nor is it the government's problem.

Why so?
Why help them live longer and fritter away more public money?
They can't work.
They moan about the past, whatever that is, and they think they know it all.
If I had my way I would offer them a painless way out now, but no.
There's profit to made out of them yet.
Well here's one that's going to start a fight back and I don't mean holding up placards. I'm going to start a blog and call it the Water Meter Fight.
