Tories target pensioners

Self made or wth more than a little help from politicians?

Steve Howard who worked for the NHS and is now retired but has a pension from the NHS which he paid for says;

I'm a pensioner twice over as I have an NHS pension as well. The Tories are aiming to introduce means tested benefits to pensioners. Once we accept that the WFP should be means tested we are only one short step from having our old age pensions (which they have deceitfully renamed benefits) means tested too.

I worked all my life to get my pensions.

I resent some person in a fancy suit telling me they are benefits.

I also resent the fact that the contract I started work on all those years ago, which kept me in this country and loyally paying taxes and any other dues such as rates, VAT, poll tax, council tax and more, can now be arbitrarily taken away by a Tory government that has a history going back Centuries of stealing out of the mouths of the poorer members of British society.

This austerity hasn't stopped the increase in sales of luxury yachts or cars, has it, Sir Philip Green, Mr Virgin and others?
Nor has it stopped the building of luxury housing and priced most people out of our large towns and cities.

To me all I see is Austerity for the Masses and Socialism for the Rich. Once again they are buying this election and unlike 200 years ago all the papers and mainstream media virtually support these crooks.

I dont want my inheritance to be limited to only £100,000. Theirs isnt, in fact they use trusts and off shore accounts to hidden their wealth, while we the people patriotically pay our dues.

The Tories have never been friends to anyone but themselves. They will step over the homeless to get into their Savoys but they wont lift a helping hand to help one.

People who refuse to vote or 'just dont care' are as guilty of treason against this fine country of ours as any disaffected refugee fleeing our bombs and dont take this statement as an excuse for terrible atrocities, but as a fact.

Terrorism doesnt happen in well adjusted households/societies that have community values as its underpinning purpose. I mean real family values, not the sort that are 'sold' to us as values where we are encouraged to compete against each other in activities where we should be cooperating and collecting our ideas and building a better environment for us all. (Mental illness excluding , of course)

And thats another area incidentally that the Tories flagrant Austerity has shunted back into the dark ages of prison, run by private jailers or back on to the streets of despair.

This country, as Corbyn very rightly points out is on the cusp of a complete return to the dark ages of where Class and Status were the guiding principles under which we lived.

I don't want it.

You shouldnt want it and if you cannot see it then you've got your eyes firmly shut, because you are afraid to accept your own role in allowing it to happen.

It is said that the first step to recovery is recognizing your disease. So to those of you who are still keeping your eyes closed and hoping that your Apathy will go away, all I can say is open them, see your part and play it next Thursday because if you dont , you'll bring the rest of us down with you too. And

you dont want that do you?

WE SAY
Thank you Steve Howard.
