Give 500,000 UK overseas State Pensioners with frozen pensions parity
We want the Government to increase the pension of all people receiving the State Pension no matter where they live in the world.
Pensioners like myself have worked our entire life, paid into the system taxes, national insurance and any other payments due. We have now reached a point where we need our pensions paid to support us. It shouldn't matter where we live as we have contributed to our pension through the system our whole working life. We believe the non-payment of increases for pensioners living abroad in certain countries is downright immoral. We think the only justification for this is that the government wishes to save money. We are only asking for what we believe we are entitled to, nothing less nothing more.
If you want to sign this petition (as opposed to merely discuss it), you need to do that on the government's e-Petitions website.
