Your comment is spot-on and entirely reasonable. Regrettably, politicians don’t seem to share this perspective. Their approach appears to push pensioners back to the UK, where they would face an existence lacking dignity—forced to scrape by on minimal resources. It’s a situation where the phrase "enough to survive, but not enough to live" seems all too fitting. What’s more perplexing is their failure to grasp that such policies only lead to greater financial strain on the state, family and relatives. On top of that, compelling pensioners to live in a certain place is deeply unfair. Consider the number of pensioners thriving in Thailand on modest budgets, with many even able to enjoy small luxuries like a Chang beer without breaking the bank. Instead of fostering a sense of security and happiness in their golden years, this approach instills needless fear and anxiety—a disservice to those who simply want to live out their lives in peace.
