    You are looking at this wrongly, women can become builders, scaffolders, etc but chose not to. If they chose to then why wouldn't they be accepted just as men would be.

    They should stop the winter fuel allowance for those pensioners that `winter in spain` loads use that money towards their flights.it should go only to those who are stuck hear for the cold winters..they rent their appartments out through the year so they have money to live on while out their and it brings in extra cash while their in the UK.

    a majority of pensioners are claiming mobility that they 'don't' need and get a new car every year or two, "what do they need a bus pass for? I know a 70+ year old who has 000s of £s in paid benefits stashed all over the house in different places, this person goes on holiday two - three times a year for weeks at a time and then comes home early because they get bored!, some people can't even afford a weekend away! Am I bitter and envious? .... I try not to be but it's difficult!

    When I first went to Goa, India, a hotel was being built next to the hotel I was staying in and all the labourers were women, they carried unbelievable amounts of bricks on their shoulders, their strength was astounding.

    With all the advertising about the rapier missiles being placed on said buildings don't you think the area is already going to be the safest street in London, surely terrorists go for easy targets. What complaints would the MOD recieve for not protecting our country when we are aware of the biggest target possible due to happen! Perhaps we should SERIOUSLY count our blessings that our Government isn't the worst in the world, I'm sure we wouldn't swop with Syria.

    Re - Scrap Free Perks for Pensioners. At £10K this will once again hit vulnerable people on modest incomes. If there has to be a level, why not use the level where higher rate tax is paid? At least this would hit well off pensioners!

    Pensioners use passes to get out not having transport otherwise, they also volunteer in the community. Overseas heating payments might be wrong in say Spain but what about those in colder areas and countries. Free Licence is only at 75 by which time pensioners spend most of their time at home and some have no visitors!

    The people who live in the tower are a bunch of nimbys, their next complaint will be about all the noise coming from the stadium and then the people in wheelchairs, they should grow a backbone and put up and shut up
