Petition to the Prime Minister in support of pensioners

The United Kingdom is the fifth strongest economy in the world, but our pensioners are the most impoverished in western europe.
During winter time many pensioners face the prospect of having to either pay for food or heat. Our elderly suffer whilst gas and electricity suppliers are steadily making huge profits through price rises. This petition demands that the present government link the state pension with salary increases, and
that pensioners are made exempt from paying water and sewage rates.
