It was interesting to read that in the past 10 years the amount of Armed Forces pensioners has risen by 19%. In 2000 there were 335,306 pensioners picking up an AF pension and this year there are 398,840. The average AF pension is £7,722 PA but there are 70 Ex servicemen picking up Circa £67,000 PA pension..... ....Its no wonder we can't afford it.
Anyway, we need our pensions expert Al R to have a look at this and see how it will affect us... Where are you Al R ? What does it all mean?
