The Conservative Party

Ha, did he say that, literally saying nothing we announced on friday has led to this

Tory MP's and commentators like Andrew Pierce have tweeted that the markets and currency fell because they were worried that Starmer and Labour was a credible alternative to the Tories and absolutely nothing to do with Fridays "Fiscal Event".

Mad on two levels really if you think about it. One to suggest the idea that Friday had bugger all to do with things and two they are openly admitting Labour are a credible threat ............... proof that when you skim off the cream of a political party the scum and detritus simply floats to the surface ( along with a few turds )

This is genuinely the first time I've been worried. I actually feel sick.

23 years paying into a pension pot, sometimes £300- £400 a month and people are saying that could have all been wiped out in a single afternoon ?

I don't see how as a nation we could stand for it and not march that pair of clowns straight to the Tower !

If anything major fails, like a pension fund, it will destroy the Tories for a generation, but it makes millions of peoples’ lives truly miserable.

Parliament needs to be recalled so there is some accountability. It is criminal that she’s gone into hiding.

Same here. Just started receiving a pension after making 26 years of contributions and now have to contemplate a future in which I may not be able to count on it the way things are going, especially if the BofE’s intervention is just a sticking plaster.

I should have known better than to respond to your post in the first place.

Whys that love? Your a very excitable poster for sure

I think technically, Charles could step in. I’m not sure how good an idea that would be for him or his family longer term though.

Would be funny to see the Mail columnists and the likes JRM, Redwood, Francois etc (and some on here) calling Charles an unpatriotic woke lefty libtard who's talking the country down who should just stick to being the King if he did step in though.

I have been paying in about the same time mate, private pension.

I made the decision during Covid to pay in the bare minimum, going forward, as it was galling to think I had £100k sitting there and couldn't access it, wasn't entitled to any government help.

I pay in £19 a month now and I don't care anymore, I'll take what's left and in another 18 years, hope Aviva's UK Ethical and Lion fund lets me walk with £100k.

As you say, it could have all gone in the blink of an eye and I refuse to have the piss taken as much as I can permit.

If if wasn't so worryingly tragic it would be funny. In all my life I have never seen anything like it, and all down to greed by the top 1% who want more and more

Don't even think the country can afford another day of these clowns
