Background

Lower the state pension age to 65.

Additional details

We believe many people who work a lifetime and contribute to society all their lives need to retire earlier if they wish to enjoy their remaining years with a good quality of life at 65 years old. Many people don’t live to enjoy their retirement later in life, due to ill health and death.
