Or if you can't work and claim benefits you get a NI credit. Somebody who spent 35 years on benefits would get a full new state pension without paying anything in at all.
Not really. You'd get the same tests to see if they qualified for the 'get it early state pension'.pabenny wrote: ↑Sun Aug 18 2019 7:31pmAnd if you don't get the full amount, you can claim means-tested pension credit. Out of work benefits are more demanding -eg work capability assessments, more stringent means testing, etc. For some who are older they may never work again and so the opportunity to move to retirement benefits rather than out of work benefits is a useful simplification.
Indeed. A 'hard right slant' in this case appears to mean, an accurate headline, and a more reasoned report.expressman33 wrote: ↑Mon Aug 19 2019 12:09pmhttps://www.dailymail.co.uk/news/articl ... -tank.htmlblythburgh wrote: ↑Mon Aug 19 2019 7:56amyou only have to read the Mail and Express to see they put a hard right slant on political news.

What's in a name? That which we call a rose
By any other word would smell as sweet.
Thus with a kiss I die.
