@MondoBeno In the UK, our generation is accused of treating them really, really badly, and there is quite a lot of tension between the age divide and especcially in the NHS...

@banjokitten yeah the smell would be awful.

@Professor6871 - It probably wouldn't make that much of a difference. Visit a post office queue on pension day if you are brave enough. Stinks of piss, something rotten.

I'm a Yank, I don't know what the deal is in the UK, or if it's changed since this episode aired. But here in the USA, too many senior citizens haven't saved anything for their retirement. No savings, no life insurance, nothing! If they've saved for their retirement, they face incredible boredom in retirement, because they didn't do anything with their spare time before.
Watch "About Schmidt" if you want an illustration.

Maybe the coalition should watch this before raising the pension age ha.

some old people are really nic.e i work with loads and they are very friendly always up for a nice chat or a laugh, my taxes are worth it if it goes to the elderly, some young urns i dont mind just cause some are yobs, the rest arnt, but i dont want to give my taxes to those who can work but refuse to work cause it means getting up in the morning (and this does not go out to those who want to work just the lazy percentage).

@banjokitten Yeah the smell would be horrible if they were dead in front of you.
-
@brazilianwonderboy What warm human being you really are. I can feel the love coming over.

So this country has got it in for the elderly and the young. So being middle aged is alright then
That's a brilliant song. A real tear-jerker, especially the bit at the end with the flower. One of Spitting Image's 'darker' songs.

@Kidsgrove49 As a taxpayer, I don't actually mind. I'd rather people were happy than dead in front of me.
