>The controversial release by the institute, written by John Macdonald, James Sean Dickson and Dr Michael Turner, said retirees with assets worth more than £1million should be denied the State Pension. It also called for sweeping reforms to address generational inequalities which act as a “drag anchor”.
There’s the nugget.
Still think eventually the state pension will be scrapped or at least means tested as pretty much everone now will have workplace pensions
The headline reads like one of those clickbait “I tried mince pies from different supermarkets and one was a clear winner.” In fact, Leicestershire Live is one of the websites that publishes these low-level journalism articles.
This is no different, seeing as it’s yet again tarring an entire demographic, stating an opinion to start a tedious debate to cause controversy, and seemingly only doing it for clicks rather than content.

One of the more stupid headlines.
