Anyone Else Smell a Rat?

This just doesn't add up....

We are being asked to believe that for over 30 years (Yes, Thirty Years!) successive governments have been over paying pensioners

Well, if I was a government auditor, I would be taking the revolver from the silver platter, walking into the drawing room, and ahem, doing the decent thing!

Im not sure what the consequences are. The government have said that the pensioners wont have to pay anything back...but their pensions will be cut sometime soon

Is this just another way of paying back the gazillions of pounds Mr Brown has borrowed to bail (private) banks out?

I wonder what will be next? Tax credits? Child trust funds?

I rule at conspiracy theories :-)
