Decrease state Pension age for Men and Women to 60 and stop further age increase

The Government wants to give us less money after paying into our pensions. If we retire at 66 or later we will only have a tiny pension compared to the amount we paid in. They are profiting from people dying and banking on it so they don't have to worry about paying us a decent pension.

£168 per week paid from 60 instead of 66 equates to £52,416 most of us could do with that kind of money because it's over £8k per year. Most people will pay national insurance their entire working lives (40+ years) and we pay roughly £30 per week for our pensions. This equates then to £62400 for our working lives. Not to mention the amount of taxes we pay that don't contribute to National Insurance but to other funds. We have paid for our pensions and the Govt wants it for themselves
