Tory plans to hike the state pension age to 68 could see some Brits not access their allowance until 15 years after their days of good health are over.
The Unite union and the National Pensioners Convention (NPC) will today join forces to demand the Tories rule out “an attack on the state pension”.
Campaigners are heading to the NPC’s annual gathering in Blackpool, which has the lowest healthy life expectancy in the UK – 55.3 years old for women and 53.7 years old for men.
