Under regulation 3 of the Social Security Benefits Up-rating Regulations British pensioners who retire to any one of over 120 countries, mainly in the Commonwealth, have their rightful state pension frozen. Meanwhile, those who retire to other countries have their pension uprated annually, just as though they never left the UK. This discriminatory policy currently impacts on the lives of over half a million British pensioners and curtails the freedom of choice of all British pensioners in retirement. We call for this Government to heed the plea of the International Consortium of British Pensioners to repeal this Regulation.If it receives at least 100,000 signatures, this petition will be eligible for debate in the House of Commons! Your participation is essential if we are to achieve that goal, so we ask that you please sign this important petition.
The following link http://bit.ly/BritPensions will take you directly to the petition site.

Getting older in Australia and getting poorer due to not getting the natural increases, yet oppos in near-by countries get the increases. Where is the equality for us ex-Service men and women? My wife also served in the WRENS.

This Jubilee year, we should remember it was also in the 1950s that the pensions of WWII veterans were first frozen!!

Count me in. Now I,me receiving the state pension my navy pension has been reduced due to tax. Believe it or not I get a tiny civil service pension of £69 a month and the buggers even take 20% of that in tax.

my army pension, would not allow to go outfor drink, with my army friends. although back in the 60s with weekly pay 0f 21 pounds like, that is , 12 ell some one today pence to a shilling, and then 20 of them made a pound, then 21 one of them, was my wage per week. before tax. You cannot dare tell anyone that, thats your pension. declare what you recieve in your tax return, and the vultures want there chunk of the cake.

I totally agree on the unfairness of this regulation, living in Australia, one of the countries effected by this, and with the rising value of the $A the UK pensions value hardly pays for a tank full of petrol. So go ahead sign me up.
