In huge news the Canadian Government has formally asked the UK for a special reciprocal agreement, which would end the injustice that denies my Mum and 150,000 other UK pensioners in Canada their full pension. Please join me in calling on the UK Government to accept this deal and end the suffering of thousands of UK pensioners in Canada by writing to your MP here www.endfrozenpensions.org/find-your-mp/
Thank you so much for your support so far for my campaign to end the policy that denies Mum her full UK state pension. My mum is a World War Two veteran who served in all three-armed forces and worked in the UK until she was 76. When she moved to Canada to be closer to family she was punished with a ‘frozen’ state pension of £72.50 per week. I believe this is cruel and unfair and the UK should not treat their pensioners this way.
Now, the Canadian Government has provided an opportunity for the UK Government to fix this unjust situation and ensure the 150,000 UK pensioners in Canada, including Mum, have access to their full UK state pension. This offer of a reciprocal agreement is a chance for real change to the lives of Mum and every other UK pensioner living in Canada. Please, if you can, ask your MP to call on the UK Government to End Frozen Pensions at www.endfrozenpensions.org/find-your-mp/.
Thank you so much again for your support,
Gill
