Why this petition matters

Started by Viki Radojkovic

Viki Radojkovic started this petition to UK Parliament
435,000 18-24 year olds were unemployed in February-April 2021, while 1.66 million were economically inactive and 3.28 million were in work. The unemployment rate for people aged 18-24 was 11.7%, up from 10.9% a year before.  They raised the pension age and I believe it is not helping the economy or society.  It is common knowledge as people get older they are less capable of certain tasks.  Young people are struggling for jobs and the people that have worked all their lives should be allowed to retire at 60.  The global lif expectancy age is 72 so why not allow these people to enjoy at least twelve years of retirement.  It would be helpful to society creating more jobs for the younger generation.  Please sign my petition.  People work their whole lives and some don't know even see sixty I think this is a fair recommendation and would help youths stay out of trouble and reduce depression.  We need to create more jobs too many are unemployed and this is the answer.  Why raise it in the first place? Are they hoping by the time they retire they will need to go on a home and that is all their money and hard work gone not the enjoyment and rest they deserve.  We have rights and I think this is a fair request and a simple solution to the issue of unemployment.
