More details

To continue to allow over 60 year olds to continue getting free prescriptions. Scotland, Wales and Ireland get free prescriptions & are for the future.
Our government continue to raise the pension age which is discussing and not our problem. At this point there will be no pension age because we will mostly be dead before we can take our pension or even get free prescriptions. Leave the prescriptions at Free for over 60's.
