That’s what the General Election is for.
Just to be clear, I'm not trying to make this into pensioners vs working age people.

Very clever use of the term, working age - as opposed to working. Which apparently record numbers of working age people don't do.Just to be clear, I'm not trying to make this into pensioners vs working age people, in fact quite the opposite. People legitimately get into situations where they are close to poverty for all manner of reasons, this crosses the entire age spectrum. I'm simply saying there are retired people who can afford to pay for services they get for free (or at reduced cost), and this helps the entire country. Also, the lifetime of paying taxes and national insurance only really stacks up when you're talking about state pension, but that is currently protected anyway - which is not necessarily going to be the case for someone contributing currently in their 30s/40s. And bear in mind that current pensioners didn't pay for their state pension, that money is long gone. For society to function it takes more than people just thinking about themselves.
Oh sorry got the wrong end of the stick there!🫣They aren't

I do, should I be blanking it, don't use it except for the occasional, barely tune in?As if anyone still pays their TV Licence bill anyway
Anyway, I got no concession on my £500 premium package in a standard zone. More fool me, paid way over the odds.I don't generalise, and do my best to judge each person on their individual circumstances. Unemployment isn't as black and white as "hard-working" and "lazy scrounger". + I did say I'm "not trying to make this into"

Think you can from 75 !I'm 79 and have never had a free TV licence. I wish I could!
BBC stopped freebies when I was 74.Think you can from 75 !
Oh, buggerBBC stopped freebies when I was 74.
I did tell you,Oh, bugger
Update, they can be had for free if you are over 75 in receipt of pension credit. So hardly anyone then.Oh, bugger
Senior citizen price deduction this season was 40 pounds I seem to remember works out at 1.74 per game. A lot haven’t got massive private pensions we are not all Grendel.
Have they just raised the pension age to 80?I’m not eligible for another 6 years anyway now they have raised the age
I wouldn't take anything from his message to be honest. Soon could be today or next month, we know that from last season.Suspect we are getting this, this week, perhaps even today based on the DK message?
I suspect there will be an announcement in the next few days with them going on sale closer to pay day.I wouldn't take anything from his message to be honest. Soon could be today or next month, we know that from last season.
Yeah, they changed it. Used to be 60 and over and now is pension ageIt was only 10%at Wembley, can't remember what it was at the start this season but I paid full wack when I got mine late not everyone has the means but, I guess the other option is means testing .
It's a tough one it used to be sixty then 65 (66) currently statutory,75 when Rishi has his way, pretty sure it's at 10% at the CBS too.
Only downside is you have to watch Huddersfield.Amazing prices at Huddersfield next season
Well go there then. They might be quite so tired.Amazing prices at Huddersfield next season
Whilst don't disagree and in normal fixture circumstance, no issue. With likelihood at multiple changes/evening kick offs that makes it really tricky for genuine families with young children.NEWS: Coventry City to introduce new Terms and Conditions for Family Zone Season Tickets

That's probably me done sadly with the likelihood of night games. My 5 year olds are an hour away aren't going to make 13/23.
Not complaining too much
