Yes, I *DO* get a pension from the UK government - well actually, TWO
pensions! One as an ordinary citizen and another as a 'veteran' (ex-Royal
Navy)

Did you pay into these pensions out of your pocket?

Yes!

No, the Navy one was paid by the Navy, IOW, by the tax payer.
BD didn't pay a cent, or penis, or whatever the currency is there.

Would this be an example of socialism, Dave?

No, under socialism he would be entitled to ONE public
pension, the same as everyone else. Maybe you should enquire, I don't
think anyone is entitled to TWO public pensions.
