It Is Worrying Times.

As a pensioner it is particularly worrying as most are on a fixed income, an income that invariably leaves very little room for manoeuvre. Therefore cutbacks, interest rates and the the cost of day to day items are of concern. Every day there is an article in the papers making reference to the problems that are queuing up to be delivered shortly. It would appear that the government is now targeting the winter fuel allowance. It is to be hoped that we do not have a hard winter. Whilst recognising the dilemma that the government finds itself in, It is sad that the bulk of pensioners who have contributed and conducted their affairs in a honest and respectable manor are once again being punished because of the actions and greed of others.
