  • Has Rishi Sunak's pension promise won your vote?
    The Conservatives have promised to raise the tax-free pension allowance - dubbed a 'Triple Lock Plus' - if they win the election.
    It would apparently make millions of older people better off

    No - tbh nothing the tories do would ever make me vote for them. As for the "pension lock" I believe it would be wrong for a pensioner on £13,000 not to be paying tax when someone in paid work earning £13,000 would pay tax. What is needed is for the tax threshold to be raised for everyone. Jemma is correct on this.

    • @SlowhandGreg
      @SlowhandGreg 4 місяці тому +7

      Due to fiscal drag the threshold should be 15500 not 12250, the NI cut was a stunt my son gets 25k and saw no benefit his tax went up by +200 you'd need to be earning at least 32k before your in credit

    I am a pensioner and I was left jaw dropped at his speech. There wasn’t a single pensioner in sight. Every person standing there listening to Sunak prattle on about what he was going to do for pensioners, with not a single sentence aimed at what he would do for all those people standing around him. What Sunak is doing is evil he is going to turn the young against pensioners. I hope people see through him. Look back a few years when the Conservatives started a campaign of vilification against the sick and disabled which caused an increase in attacks on them. Pensioners don’t need this stirring up of hatred all we want is to live out our last days in peace and security, we also want to live in a fairer society for all. Work should pay enough to lift people out of poverty and to give them a hope for a better future. I also want Sunak to stop treating the British people like they are idiots.

The youths, middle class, pensioners, he'll go for the disabled next, people are buying into his rubbish tho that's the scary part! I wish you well .

    Sorry but raising the tax-free pension allowance isn't going make anyone better off, it will just maintain the value of the pension as any increase in pension is as a result of increased inflation. Incidently theres no such thing as a 'pension allowance' all thats being proposed is that the currently frozen personal allowance is being unfrozen for pensioners. It's a con.

      Problem is the State pension isn't contributory it's paid from current National Insurance contributions the only thing your contributions get you is your eligibility for it. Thats why pensions an issue at the moment as the working population isn't going to be big enough in the future to pay sufficient contributions to pay for the State Pension payouts.

      ⁠The NI employee contribution is basically a method of disguising the true rate of tax. It is basically a Ponzi scheme leading people to believe they are paying for a deferred benefit when in actual fact the money is spent directly as is normal tax receipts.

    How do they think £11.500 is a livable wage in the first place .we didn’t have the pension option that has now been here for maybe the last 12 yrs low income workers simply do not have a private pension . But why do I think that Christian will have a lovely pension and if he is paying a £1000 rent he is either earning a damn good wage or he is getting the government top up .where I live most don’t earn more than 1,300 a month. Please remember 8.5% on £9,500 is still far less than 5% on £30,000 . Christian needs to ask who will look after his older parents for him because he sure want as he claims he will still be working at 80 sadly women generally are the ones who become first mothers then careers freeing in general the men up to uninterrupted financial security . So you know Christian I worked and paid into the system for 51 yrs while I raised a family and cared for both my family and my hubbies

      Not as good as it looks.
      Then they tax you if you have a small pension that you paid extra for to protect your old age.

    Six months ago every Tory under the sun were say the state pension was unaffordable I heard Mogg say this . All of a sudden they’re the pensioners friend . I would imagine if I was about to retire I’d be very careful who I voted for . Sunak has said they may need to increase pension age to pay for increases. So imagine looking forward to your pension at 67 only to find the age increases to 70 and the loss of £34000 in pension income.
    This lot have form Labour never raised the pension age .

  • @johnholkham2420

    It’s a pig in a poke, no pensioners pays tax on state pension at the moment , most pensioners only get the old max pension of £8500 . The REAL issue is the tax thresholds have not increased for years , the Tories steal a lot and give back a little.
    the Tories have increased the woman’s pension age from 60 to 66 soon 67 , Mens pension age from 65 to 67 soon. The new pension which few get is very hard to get in full . Note the wording pay no tax on state pension so if your state pension is below the threshold but your company pension takes it over your still pay tax, only the state pension is protected not the private. One persons tax cut is another’s rise .
    Basically the Tories have run the country very poorly even business leaders despair and the Tax take is the largest since the war they have spent 14 years fighting amongst themselves with more interest in self enhancement and have no interest in the people.

    A nothing policy. At say 3% rise /year it will be 3 years before they are above the allowance. Therefore no state benefit pensioner will benefit from this for 3 years. By then a labour government would have raised the allowance for everyone so all will benefit anyway.
