Triple Lock Will Be Removed..................
67 Answers
.............by the chancellor Risky Sunak. During the pandemic, the vast majority of deaths were senior citizens, who the govt had failed to protect, hence grovelling apology from Bojo the Clown in January. Now, the senior citizens will again be neglected by the govt when the triple lock is removed in the November budget, just after the re-introduction of State Control. This comes when everyone knows that the state pension in this country is the worst in Europe. It's all about the money. The dosh. The spondooliks. T'aint about you mate. Or your welfare. The country can't afford you. Otherwise, everything's fine thanks! :o)

If there are any problems, I will put one on, even though I don't want to, but there is no way I am going to have my picture taken and posted online having a barney with a supermarket staff member !!

//Wonder if tge source is more reliable than the one that told you boris the clown was covering up news of a policeman killed in Slovakia or somewhere//
You clearly didn't read my post thoroughly about that did you bob? I didn't say Bojo the Clown covered it up. I said he chose to ignore it. It's nearly 12 months now since that happened.
In answer to youngmafbog @ 09.25:
Senior citizens have definitely borne the brunt of the pandemic. The vast majority of deaths have been senior citizens, something like 95% of deaths. I'd say that was bearing the brunt of it.

They may have borne the brunt of the deaths (let’s take it as a given that that’s sad), but old people die every day.
They haven’t taken the brunt of the economic impact that have seen countless people lose their income and fret about how they’re going to pay their rent/mortgages and feed their kids.

^ But that's not their fault and you seem to think being elderly is a breeze DD as long as money is coming in !! What about all the debilitating illnesses the elderly get with all the accompanying aches and pains making them unable to live a normal life, being frail and often lonely and picked on for daring to be old (like this nasty thread). The likes of you begrudge them the measly pension some of them do get. And you are NOT in the least bit sad that the majority of deaths are the elderly, that comes over strongly in your nasty posts. You'll be old yourself one day DD, and others on here who like to pensioner bash - hope it's fun !!!
Deskdiary, since my elderly relatives moved in my costs have rocketed. They feel the cold so have to have the heating on very high most of the year; the washing machine is on almost constantly due to incontinence; the aids they need are not cheap; the wear and tear they create far outweighs that caused by children.
If they lived in their own homes they would have to pay for home help and personal care. Neither of them owned their own homes so would be paying rent.
