Closed Make everyone born up to 31 December 1960 eligible for the state pension at 66

Closed on

According to current law people born in January, February and March 1960 can get state pension when they reach their 66th birthday. I think people born in 1960 year from April to December are penalised as they have to wait longer to access their state pension.

I would like the Government to change the law for people born in 1960, so they can all get their state pension when they reach their 66th birthday.

I think the current law by the Department of Work and Pensions discriminate against people born in April to December in 1960.
