It's All Right For Some
The Mrs Gruff has just told me of a woman with whom she is acquainted (it's probably for the best to describe her that way). She is a pensioner drawing a state pension yet she receives a full final salary pension worth possibly thirty thousand pounds per annum and is paid two hundred and fifty pounds per day, for five days per week, working, more or less permanently, in a freelance capacity for her former employer. I'm not questioning her right to her earnings but I do question her right to a full state retirement pension and all the benefits that go with it. The Mrs Gruff says she pays no council tax, which, if true, is grossly unjust, and extremely annoying, as her income, if at its assumed maximum, is approaching five times that of TMG.
