What we have worked towards for more than a decade is a fairer settlement across the generations with the welfare state supporting those in most need.
Age alone as a proxy for need is no longer fair & wealthy oldies should not get free handouts. 👏👏

The National Living Wage has increased along with the welcome reduction of the National Living Wage age threshold from 23 to 21 yrs.

By continuing the freeze on Income Tax and NICs’ thresholds until 2027-28, the government has condemned the young and the poor to bear a larger share of the national tax burden. Read more here:
