Hi Everyone!
The UK DWP has released guidance stating that people moving to EU or EEA countries and Switzerland from 1 January 2021 will get the UK State Pension at the same rate as it is paid in the UK - see https://www.gov.uk/guidance/benefits-and-pensions-for-uk-nationals-in-the-eea-or-switzerland#uk-state-pension
So it looks like the UK is quite capable of negotiating
agreements to uprate the UK State Pension when it feels like it,
or more likely, when it faces a government, like the EU, that
stands up for its residents and is prepared to make issues like
pension payments a part of trade negotiations.
It's time for the Australian government to stand up for us, so
please write to your MP and your Senators to tell them that
Many thanks to Bob who posted about this on the BPiA Facebook group: https://www.facebook.com/groups/1503078969991456/permalink/2565698193729523/
