I never thought the day would come but Stanley Johnson talking on the TV the other night about the pensionable age actually made (some) sense.
It's all to do with this kerfuffle about raising the pensionable age. Whilst ever the state scheme is a pay-as-you-go one and life expectancy continues to rise there will be increasing pressure on those paying NI. Surely it make sense to squeeze the gap between the age one takes one's pension and average life expectancy?
Oh dear - am I leaning too far to the right?
