New Labour - allowing pensioners to die in poverty abroad(as well as here)...

The Lib Dem MP Jennifer Willott, made a good case about the poverty of pensioners from this nation who have moved abroad, there are roughly a million or so of them and of these about half have a frozen pension.

This link broken between pensions and earnings back in the 1980s by the Thatcher government. You will note that on each and every occasion that they can the fine socialist brothers and sisters harp on and on about the nasty uncaring Tories.

Yet this situation has remained after 11 years of New Labour, yes a whole 11 years and it has not been put right by the caring sharing New Labour, hug an illegal, hug a terrorist, waste money on ID cards, waste money on the Olympics in 2012, waste money on Quango's, as well as pay over £100 million a year to the murdering scum who are carrying out Genocide in the Sudan.

Oh and the fiasco of the Millennium Dome as well as record numbers of pen pushers on the state payroll that need to be reduced.

How strange that they can find money for all the pet projects that they dream up yet are happy to leave our nationals abroad on a pittance?

But not all the MP's are so uncaring, one Labour MP Michael Connarty tabled an Early Day Motion. EDM 2104 calls upon the government to “provide the 520,000 British pensioners resident abroad who currently struggle to survive on their frozen pensions with pension parity.”

This raised this issue on 11.10.2007, and sadly a mere 72 of our Rt Honorable MP's actually bothered to sign this EDM. Then again what with their gold plated pensions and fine salaries off of us tax payers why should they actually care?

So what is the typical attitude of our caring socialist MP's? Well Jenny quoted a case of an OAP who's pension was frozen on £15 per week. The government argue that it would cost some £3 billion, money we could easily take from say butchers in the Sudan.

The removal of our foreign aid program, that provides luxury villas, private jets and funds the Sudanese militias in their killing sprees through Darfur would easily cover that £3 billion and have some more left over for New Labour to squander on some other pet projects.

Hell even if the figures were not back dated, that would knock some off the 3 billion, I would rather that go to our people rather than African dictators who pop the cash into their Swiss bank accounts and let their people starve.

A typical attitude of the uncaring socialists is my worthless amoral shit of an MP Paul Flynn who said this:

Jenny Willett made a strong case for justice for overseas pensioners.

Jenny (Cardiff Central) has been appointed the LibDem spokesperson on Social Security. There are a million British pensioners living overseas. Half of them have frozen pensions.

Jenny quoted one woman of 80 whose pension is frozen on £15 a week. Superficially it’s a compelling case. The cost is not. It would cost a cool £3billion to do justice and raise the frozen pensions and pay arrears.

As the minister Michael O’Brien said the women on £15 would get income support from her new country. To accede to the Jenny’s plea would mean taking money from British taxpayers to reduce spending in other countries. Everyone is sympathetic but that is never going to be top of any party’s agenda. Even the LibDems.

Well jolly good Mr Flynn, after all you I am sure will not be struggling along on £15 per week - although that is more than your worth - and neither will you have to pop along to the local authorities in your host nation to apply for top up benefits that you may or may not get.

Here we see the real sick, evil face of caring New Labour in action...
