I could be wrong but I imagine a lot of the unions still have actively members who are already pensioners, and thus advocating for those that have already retired
Some of the phone-in comments from pensioners themselves have been mildly amusing, not least the ones who are up in arms but openly declared stuff like regularly donating to charity...

Been looking at Warner flats in particular. Lots of the gardens we’ve seen are just one big patch which is shared and in need of work. Ideally we’d have a private space, but if there’s one compromise for us it would be not having outdoor space for the sake of a decent property we can work with.
Already said no to the idea of a 1 bed, just seems pointless.

Started to begin our FTB journey a little more seriously including a reccy of Walthamstow, was nice enough during the day and the vibe is probably down our street. Need to do some more of the surrounding areas (Leyton, Leytonstone etc) in the not too distant future...
But fuck me it feels bleak when just casually browsing Rightmove/Zoopla etc - we are restricted by what we can do with our LISA budget (£450k max), and feel like we're in a pretty strong position with around a 20% deposit (don't have AIPs or anything yet), but some of the 2 bed flats are just...yuck

Way out of my budget I'm afraid, but many thanks
