The UK's review of pension provision will (again) include a review of state pension age(s), looking to save money by pushing the retirement age higher.
Of course, given differential life expectancy & more importantly disparities in late life health & wellbeing, this once again has a class element.
UK pensions are still lower than across Europe & delaying them further will hurt the poor & vulnerable more than the (relatively) rich & healthy.
Ever was it thus!
