You seem to be suggesting reducing pensions that are already being paid out. The statement is not incorrect either

Those taking the blame should be the people that designed and erected the whole complex in a great fanfare in the late 60’s - the whole place was bulldozed down 20 years later

The Blair government started the payment idea
