They don't get enough protection from any party, the Labour party have long since given up on thinking about workers, there's too much loot to be made at the top of the Westminster tree for anyone to honestly give a fcuk about anyone apart from themselves.
Working past 65 is only abhorrent if your life expectancy is low, why should you get a good job then be expected to contribute towards benefits for someone with a life expectancy of 95, it just doesn't add up, pensions should have been tackled with cross party consensus long long ago,unfortunately those at Westminster are only interested in the power and booty that awaits them when they gain office.
