Should richer pensioners be stripped of benefits to help fund health service? #BBCNolan
Richer pensioners should be stripped off benefits to help fund our health service. So if you're getting on a bit and you've got a few quid - you would say goodbye to the likes of your winter fuel allowance and your TV licence. And if you're over 40 and better off - your tax bill would go up - all to help cover the growing costs of our health service. The proposals come from the influential think tank, the King's Fund. This is a debate that always gets the phonelines hopping on the Nolan Show, let's hear your views at home. We get the views of commentators Bill Jeffrey, David Vance and Irwin Armstrong.
