If only pensioners didn't pay taxes. We still pay tax on most every penny we spend, with a very few concessions. My only concession, is a bus pass.
Triple Lock Plus.

Your only current concession.
You get free prescriptions and free eye tests
Yes, I know it’s not earth shattering, just slightly better than a poke in the eye
'I'm 27 and can't even get on the property ladder!'
You've never heard such a statement or similar? Maybe start watching some news/political tv progs instead of Coronation Street.
Here's a tip youth, if you can't afford to get on the property ladder in your 20s, do something about it and when you get to your 30s you never know.
Not everything is a right. Deal with it.
So do all over 60s it not just pensioners as well as everyone in Scotland and wales
It certainly seems that way to me
That’s for over 60's. Proper pensioners are aged 66 upwards. I get discounted haircuts and a decent discount on my annual gym membership. Oh yeah, I don’t pay any NI either.

Yes, I've heard similar, from my own son and daughter some time ago, so they saved up, worked hard and they now have their own homes.
I've never heard youngsters claim "it is their right" or "they have a RIGHT to EVERYTHING, now". That's nonsense.
Why? £220 for a whole year. Gym, swim, classes (if I wanted). I went swimming at 6.30 this morning.You nearly had me there…gym membership
I would suggest you wash your ears out, I hear it often..
You are doing it again - this is your MO every time.

That youngsters have a "right to everything, now". You really hear that, and often?

Saying that I don't hear youngsters say "I have a right to everything, and now"? That's my MO?
