but seriously its good bye to the bus pass in England and then watch the bus fares go through the roof. that's another privatized sector propped up by subsidized taxpayers money with the profit going to the few.

I can't see the point in this poll
As according to the news he is going to make cuts on all of them not just one

Is there any point in any of his polls? They're not genuine polls, just crude, hamfisted attempts at political propaganda.

last time i looked it was a democratic country. this is a genuine poll as we haven't seen the bulk of cuts implemented. people are free to vent their views. how is the truth propaganda .the propaganda is the constant nhs bashing ,the judgmental views that everybody on benefits are scrounging thieving scum that is portrayed in the right wing press and news channels.

and 16 people have disagreed with you

Margaret Pilkington · 11-01-2014, 10:38

That is their democratic right...to disagree.
Mick is entitled to his opinion, as you are to yours.....but it does strike me that you only post such stuff to (allegedly) promote your beloved Labour values...which even the Labour party no longer uphold. So like Mick (even though people will disagree with me as well) I think what he says is right.
Mick I second your views!

Margaret Pilkington · 11-01-2014, 10:40

Oh, and according to the poll only ten people have voted...so not 16 as in your post.

Ah, and which Country are we talking about exactly?

You know these benefits are talked of as if we, the pensioner, is being given somethig for nothing.
That is not the case. I paid for my pension by contributions over my working life. I pay for my bus pass and my winter heating allowance with my taxes...yes, I still pay taxes on my pension.
If pensioners were allotted(I have avoided the use of 'given' as this benefit has been earned) a pension which reflected how much it costs to live, then bus passes and Winter heating allowances would not be required.
