Make all UK State Pension payments index for all British Citizens living abroad
1/2 million oversees British Citizens do not receive indexed state pension, they worked & paid into the national insurance system then moved abroad. Example they started the pension in 1975, the pension is frozen at 1975 rates, this impacts the pensioners affordability Quality of life in retirement
Update the UK pension system to pay all expats living abroad a fully index pension, make it equal for all, Do not not have favourable pension for some and not for all, expats in USA receive a full indexed pension.Pensioners in many commonwealth countries have their pension frozen, this contradicts GB equity ethics policies & practices, pensioners abroad move based on many factors including health, family, work , why are they being punished, often pensioners need to rely on welfare support abroad
