If you look at things that really affect people's lives - sport, the arts, charities - they were always at the back of the queue for government money - health, social security, defence, pensions were all way ahead.

I would not be opposed to devising a new system of pensions, in which one part was based on collective provision, but which also gave incentives for people to take out an additional, personal plan. ↗

Remember our proud history of social justice, universal health care, public pensions and making sure no one is left behind. Let's continue to move forward. ↗
