AIUI, nothing will change until 2016 - by which time you will already have retired at 65, so it shouldn't affect you.

I'm unclear as to what exactly the Conservatives are proposing for the new retirement age for men.



I was born in September 1950 and expect to receive state pension in 2015. But I will be 66 in 2016. So are they proposing that I retire in 2015 or



2016?

They'll never let you retire. ;-) AFAIK these are only vague ideas and are likely to change (for the worse) if they actually got elected.

If the current lot get re-elected then there won't be anything left to pay anyone a pension!

I don't think it'll make much difference who gets elected next time. We are going to have to live with the mess for a very long time.
