The current state pension for a four weekly period, as near as a damn it a month, is &#xA3;975.20. If this person is below the minimum why aren't they on pension credit?</description><pubDate>Thu, 28 May 2026 09:35:48 +0000</pubDate></item><item><title>Why are British Pensioners so despised</title><link><![CDATA[https://aseannow.com/topic/1395484-why-are-british-pensioners-so-despised/?do=findComment&comment=20526882]]></link><description>That's your problem. You watch the very places stuffed full of hatred towards anything that will give the dopamine hit now demanded by many. The places which also tediously claim that London is the most dangerous place in the world and you will die within hours if you visit (despite being one of the safest capitals on the planet)  The triple lock was set up to a) give the impression that the government cares about pensioners and b) to cover up the fact that the UK pension is so poor when compared to all its competitors.  Lack of available housing is a problem. When I bought my first house back in the 80s, we had it very easy - I got a place for &#xA3;30000 when my salary was a modest &#xA3;12k - 2.5 x salary. The same house today would cost around &#xA3;650000 and the same sort of job would pay around &#xA3;32K - 20 x salary.   Lack of decent jobs is a problem. Add to that the disgraceful way the youngsters were treated during covid - closing schools, having uni courses by zoom (but still paying the full cost) and taking away all the schemes to help the young into work just to save money, while pouring money into the pockets of the wealthy by way of covid recovery loans and more tax breaks. But not many oldies cared about that, preferring to label them as lazy - parroting the line spun in the gutter press. The more recent idea seems to be to treat all youngsters as feckless and idle and to force them into work by cutting any tiny benefit they may have been entitled and cancelling any schemes designed to help them into a job.  I can understand the young complaining about the privileged oldies who constantly complain about the deprived young, but when speaking to them I don't find any real animosity but then I approach them with sympathy, not constantly whining and moaning. I can see that their life is far worse than I ever experienced at their age and yet there are still plenty who are happy to exploit their fears and make lots of money from the misery they expound. This generation is the first that will be poorer than their parents because a lot of the oldies have an 'I'm all right, Jack' attitude and are happy to let the young subsidise their lives but not lift a finger to help them.</description><pubDate>Thu, 28 May 2026 09:35:39 +0000</pubDate></item><item><title>Austrian Gets 1,673 Years in Thai Prison</title><link><![CDATA[https://aseannow.com/topic/1395481-austrian-gets-1673-years-in-thai-prison/?do=findComment&comment=20526881]]></link><description>So he could still get out if he makes it 25 years out of 50 years in Thai prison, to Australia + released as elderly at 79 ish. I think it would be even earlier as you also get 1 year discount on every year you behaved well, on a royals birthday or the thai new year as just around 12.5 years would equal 25 already in that case, he would be 66.5 years old to return to Australian prison.</description><pubDate>Thu, 28 May 2026 09:35:31 +0000</pubDate></item><item><title>Andrew Drummond and Adam Howell</title><link><![CDATA[https://aseannow.com/topic/1395037-andrew-drummond-and-adam-howell/?do=findComment&comment=20526880]]></link><description>I haven't either.

That means they are guilty too. The same for quite a few former USA presidents: countless of war crimes. Putin is a saint compared to it.  One sometimes wonders how it is even possible that people got so delusional programmed. Russians literally sacrificed dozens of millions for us in world war 2, to ever since been treated as the enemy lol. They were not even invited to the celebrations when the war ended.  Same Russia has always delivered consistently the gas it agreed to deliver by 4 year roll-over contracts, with the best fixed prices possible. Even during major conflict times, it never interrupted that supply.   Then foreign lobby came to Brussel, forced every country (except Italy) off these 4 year roll-over contracts, and issues ever since with higher prices and dependency, mostly on USA. Then the ukraine war, also pushed by USA for years, same result again. Same as for blowing up the nordstream. The attack on the nordstream itself is a heavy war crime. That basically means USA acts against EU their best interests.  We have seen this countless of times, from WW2 start and ever since. And the fusion with Israel is proven already too. Epstein too. Whatever shadow government runs USA does this, it's not the american people or the land called USA for sure.  And it is this very people, that constantly push us to the brink of 'wiping everyone out', they are the aggressors.</description><pubDate>Thu, 28 May 2026 09:21:53 +0000</pubDate></item><item><title>Electric Vehicles in Thailand</title><link><![CDATA[https://aseannow.com/topic/1257405-electric-vehicles-in-thailand/?do=findComment&comment=20526867]]></link><description>We have 4 PTT&#x2019;s with EV charging within a few km, there&#x2019;s also Rever and Spark, I&#x2019;ve never seen anyone at Spark.</description><pubDate>Thu, 28 May 2026 09:21:53 +0000</pubDate></item><item><title>mystifying pump problems</title><link><![CDATA[https://aseannow.com/topic/1395411-mystifying-pump-problems/?do=findComment&comment=20526865]]></link><description>As suggester earlier take the top off and observe the action of the switch.
