Senior Citizens Come off Worse than Asylum Seekers

Bedlam Perspective

This was brought to my attentiion by Fred Ashford. I think the facts need spreading around FAST

INTERESTING, but then we always knew that our SENIOR CITIZENS were left out of the equation! OH BRITAIN, where did we go wrong ?

We're "broke" and can't help our own Senior Citizens, Veterans, Orphans, Homeless etc., Are you aware of the following?

The British Government provides the following financial assistance: -

BRITISH OLD AGE PENSIONER Weekly allowance £100
ASYLUM SEEKERS / 'REFUGEES' LIVING IN BRITAIN Weekly allowance £250

BRITISH OLD AGE PENSIONER Weekly Spouse allowance £25
ASYLUM SEEKERS / 'REFUGEES' LIVING IN BRITAIN Weekly Spouse allowance £225

BRITISH OLD AGE PENSIONER Additional weekly hardship allowance £0:00
ASYLUM SEEKERS / 'REFUGEES' LIVING IN BRITAIN Additional weekly hardship allowance £100

BRITISH OLD AGE PENSIONER TOTAL YEARLY BENEFIT £6,000 ASYLUM SEEKERS / 'REFUGEES' LIVING IN BRITAIN TOTAL YEARLY BENEFIT £29,900

Please read all and then forward to all your contacts so that we can lobby for a decent aged pension.

After all, the average pensioner has paid taxes and contributed to the growth of this country for the last 40 to 60 years.

Sad isn't it?


Thanks for sending this in Fred.

Senior Citizens

Bedlam Humour

Ed Goldstraw has sent another funny quip.

Senior citizens are constantly being criticised for every conceivable deficiency of the modern world, real or imaginary. We know we take responsibility for all we have done and do not blame others.

HOWEVER, upon reflection, we would like to point out that it was NOT the senior citizens who took:
The melody out of music,
The pride out of appearance,
The courtesy out of driving,
The romance out of love,
The commitment out of marriage,
The responsibility out of parenthood,
The togetherness out of the family,
The learning out of education,
The service out of patriotism,
The Golden Rule from rulers,
The nativity scene out of cities,
The civility out of behaviour,
The refinement out of language,
The dedication out of employment,
The prudence out of spending,
The ambition out of achievement, or,
God out of government and school.

And we certainly are NOT the ones who eliminated patience and tolerance from personal relationships and interactions with others!!


And, we do understand the meaning of patriotism, and remember those who have fought and died for our country.

Just look at the Seniors with tears in their eyes and pride in their hearts as they stand at attention with their hand over their hearts!
