Petition Government bonds for over 65s Is discrimination

More details

The government has just introduced a 4% national savings bond for people over 65, similar products and rates are not being made available to the younger members of the UK electorate.
The government is openly discriminating against younger people using tax payer liabilities to allow over 65s to gain a benefit.
In the current low interest savings environment the government should be helping us all.
Over 65s should not be given preferential treatment and a similar bond should be made available to the rest of population.
