POLITICIANS REFUSE TO BE EDUCATED
Marching has not educated politicians.

That is the problem.

LABOUR IGNORED PENSIONERS 
Labour threw the 2017 and 2019 elections against Labour, and are busily en route to bankrupt their own party, so it ends.

There were no meaningful pension policies in Labour's 2017 and 2019 election manifestos, least of all lowering pension age. Keeping pension age 66 was of no use at all to 1960s born ladies, nor the I Daniel Blake men, dumped onto benefit, by loss of Pension Credit from 60.

I campaigned as Pension 60 Now (Pension Credit 60 Now) then Grey Swans to Labour, during the period of Jeremy Corbyn's leadership, as throughout his political career he had supported pension age 60 men and women the same. So campaigning from 2015 to 2019.

The same right wing of Labour as Starmer and co now, threw the 1983 election against Labour, which held manifesto pledge of pension age 60 for men, which would have made it hard to thieve pension off women.

SNP / SCOTTISH PARLIAMENT

SNP The SNP's basic income report published to Scottish parliament June 2020, had a pensioner basic income that STOPPED PAYMENT OF STATE PENSION FOR 3 YEARS DURING THE PILOT, so permanently thieving that money off pensioners for that length of time, and called the state pension a benefit. So we see what an independent Scotland would do to pensioners.

NEW SOCIALIST PARTIES
My Grey Swans is now pension campaigning for pension age 60 for men and women, into new socialist parties, emerging from the huge ending of Labour party membership, moving their membership into those new parties. The next general election is not til 2024, which is the 1970s born to get pension age 60 men and women (they are turning 50 now), because by then pension age will be 70 going on 75.

1950s to 1980s born ARE IN SAME BOAT AS OLDER PENSIONERS
Grey Swans is still about the 1950s and 1960s born men and women, as the state pension might be gone for all pensioner ages by 2024, by the end of the triple lock eroding the value of state pension money and this constant increasing lie that it is a benefit.

AGEISM IS INCREASING NOT DECREASING

Our problem is British society is embedded ageist and we are not given free press to challenge all the lies and deceit against the state pension and pensioners in general.

ONLY A LARGE NUMBER OF SIGNATURES WILL EDUCATE THE NEW SOCIALIST PARTIES for socialist pension policies, which include lowered pension age 

Please widely share Grey Swans petition, so the new parties hear socialist pension policies. Right now, they believe the Grey Vote do not vote for Left parties, which cannot be true as Keir Hardie and his Jeremy Corbyn type of Labour was voted by working class for over 100 years.
