Closed petition Lower the age at which men can claim the state pension.
Closed on
In an age of total equality, surely it is only fair and right that men and women enjoy a similar amount of time in retirement. As life expectancy for men is, on average, 4 years shorter than for women, surely they (men) should be able to claim their state pension 4 years earlier.
