]]> Mon, 8 Oct 2012 08:23:20 UTC 13900115 https://gopetition.com/signature/locate/13899191?utm_medium=rss My Wife and i are comfortably off in retirement but we are worried about having to go into a home due to ill health and having to sell our home as a result. I contributed national insurance all my working life(51years) and i managed to save and contribute to other pension schemes which has allowed us a joint income of £345.00 a week. We have to budget carefully and feel the state pension of £107.00 a week is impossible to live on for other people. I also noticed that my birthday 241045 entitled me to a state pension after 30 years where have my other 21 years contributions gone? My wife and i feel sorry for other pensioners who are living on there state pensions only, and wonder if our local councillors/mp's could live on these disgraceful amounts. We have lived through an era of boom and bust and digraceful goverments who have not made any provision for people living longer plus health in old age. Did they not realise progress over 50 years includes people living longer? During my lifetime my children were not entitled to child benefit you had to provide for them. Thanks to the economy i was made redundant twice during my lifetime but still kept up my contributions.

However, when it comes to weighing equitable state pensions for the indigenous population on one side, and state handouts to immigrants and asylum seekers on the other, then the balance is substantially tilted in favour of non-indigenous newcomers. Are we entitled to question this arrangement without being accused of being bigots and racists.?
We all know the answer to that one.
Equal rights in this country means many people are allowed to take out more than they put in, but nobody who put's in more than they take out is allowed to object to .
How does equallity work out in that sitution..?
This is not a simple issue of equity where the rich pay more in taxes than the less well off.
This is about the less well off being discriminated against by their own government and being denied their just desserts in order to generously welcome one and all, and their extended families, to the land of milk and honey. It's as good as winning the lottery..
You name it, they get it, whilst the people who have lived and worked here all their lives are neglected

]]> Thu, 27 Sep 2012 07:48:21 UTC 13839700 https://gopetition.com/signature/locate/13839416?utm_medium=rss Stop divisive and inequitable grants and benefits to immigrants / asylum seekers.
Make them (who have made no National Insurance contributions) responsible for their own medical treatment and medications.
Which is the strict policy of every other national government throughout the developed world.
Make every migrant seeking entry undergo a thorough medical check before being allowed in. Stop burdening the NHS with the responsibility for treating free-loaders coming in with acute medical conditions and/or highly infectious diseases, such TB and HIV Aids.
We are not the benefactors of the world..!! We can't even afford to properly reimburse our indigenous pensioners for their financial and social contribution to this country, which is a situation that is not only totally unacceptable and unfair, but is also extremely ungracious and wrong.
This government really does need to get it's priorities in oder and start looking after it's own people properly, BEFORE anyone else.
If these newcomers haven't the means to support themselves in every way, and are here to simply take advantage of us and our crass stupidity, by milking the system dry, then we should stand firm and refuse entry.
