Where is the UK headed?

[Tel 911S]

The report originally from UCL was misinterpreted by Migrationwatch who simply guessed a lot of the figures to try and prove their point and has been blasted by academics.

The inconvenient truth is that Britain has an ageing population with people of a pension age growing faster than the working age population. The only options to address this in the sort term are:

a) make people work longer
b) reduce the state pension
c) increase the working age population (immigrants of a working age)

This isn't some sort of socialist agenda and I understand why it is unpopular with many people, but it is simple economics and demographics.

So are you trying to say that the pension shortfall is nothing to do with the fact that one of the first things Gordon Brown did when he became Chancellor was to raid the UK pension funds to the Value of something over £100 Billion .
