/// Luck had NOTHING to do with it. You work hard, and you enjoy te rewards of that hard work.///
Especially if you get a little help from "positive discrimination" measures.
/// Yes...those who are pleading poverty now are the very same people who brought the country to it's knees when I was a nipper.///
Do they include those of your own race also?
/// Rubbish. They have relatives ///
I notice that you are thick enough to believe there are no pensioners who are completely on their own, with no family whatsoever.
/// It's because the extended family is still strong amongst practically ALL ethnic minorities ///
It is sad that in most cases, the Afro-Caribbean family comprises mainly of a single woman and her children, funded by government hand-outs, just as those elderly scroungers are, that you are happy to belittle.
/// By the way - the vast amount of elderly scroungers didn't actually fight during the second world war. Only those over 65 did. ///
Now let's get this right "only pensioners over 65 fought in WW2". That would make a 65 year old just being born at the end of the war (1945), so no he didn't. Now lets see, a guy born at the very beginning (1939) he would now be only 71, so who was old enough? anyone 83 or older.
/// The vast number of elderly pensioners now, have done nothing to deserve special treatment. All they've done, is grow old. ///
Haven't you heard of RESPECT FOR THE ELDERLY? No perhaps not.
