Rejected petition proposed reduction of state pension

More details

Government has let it be known that the state pension may be reduced by altering the way it is calculated. Given the substantial rise in the cost of living, especially on such items as gas petrol and electricity, It is my opinion! that this would be a direct attack on those who are least able to sustain themselves! I would put it to the Government that this would be not only unfair, but in certain cases dangerous to health. I would therefore, ask the Government to reconsider this action.
