We believe those on the basic Pension should be paid the difference accrued between the basic and new State Pension since the new State Pension's introduction.
Britain's basic State Pension is currently £169.50 per week.
Britain's New State Pension is currently £221.20 a week.
Britain's average weekly earnings (AWE) were estimated at £693 in August 2024.
