[BITList] Stolen Pensions

[John Feltham]

>From another place...

Among the first promises broken by Libdems is the promise to abolish pension freezing for pensioners living overseas, mainly in old loyal Commonwealth countries. These people have paid the same contributions as everyone else, yet have their pensions cut every year. This does not happen if they retire to that old rebel country that left the Commonwealth in 1776. 
Pensioners who live in Israel do not have their UK pensions cut, 
Also, people who get pensions from public sector schemes do not get their occupational pensions cut, but many who are in private sector occupational schemes do.
