To me if your entitled due to age then you should get it no matter your savings , that’s bus pass, nursing stay or season ticket to dens
Where this is going barmy notso is everyone is becoming entitled .......like my free central heating system .....I honestly could afford my own......but I'm not gonna pay if someone else is.

I agree there should be no punishment for aspiration, aspiration is good and shouldn't be punished.....but we have to move away from entitlement........and we will given what we have spent on COVID.

It's like council tax, why should you buying and paying for a bigger house cost you more than someone who uses more water, has more bodies in the house, more bins to empty.
