No it doesn't

It does if you are paid up.

only if fully paid up NOT contracted out

You have to remember that the Mail headline figures for any state payments
- always the very maximum possible - are the only important ones to our
right wing pals. What people may get in practice aren't even considered.

Until they come to have to live on them. Then the story changes.

No-one has to lve on £120 a week (or even the new £155 a week) once past
the official pension age. That has already been explained in this thread.
