Al,
I, and most others below state retirement age, have recently suffered two considerable blows to our future income. Firstly, the raising of the state retirement age has cost my wife and I approx £25,000 that we will now NEVER get. Secondly, the Government had no qualms about changing the RPI to the CPI pension correction factor. You will be well aware of the possible damage this has done. There was uproar about this but it has been imposed on us all.
Sorry to be negative, and I support your advice, but I don't see that anything positive on this will come along for decades.

OAP
