Felt the same when I got this info. Why bother if not ever increased in line with inflation.

Grandfather 'disgusted and insulted' by 25p pension rise for turning 80

An Oldham grandfather, who says he has never claimed a penny in benefits and started working at the age of 15, has hit out at his 'embarrassing' pension increase - of just 25p.

BBC Radio 4 debates if corporation should scrap 'the pips'

Since February 5, 1924, the 'pips' that form the Greenwich Time Signal have been played at the end of each hour on BBC radio stations across Britain - bar the occasional hiccup.

#UniversityChallenge I would enjoy University Challenge a lot more if Amol Rajan could ask the questions just a little more slowly. We’re not all as young as the contestants !

#politicsuk hardly any MPs attending parliament today and many of them are just texting on their phones. Disgraceful!

#PennyMordaunt what a waste of #LauraKuenssberg and our time on BBC #Sunday. She won’t answer questions, so what’s the point of an interview. She should withdraw from the contest now.

#GeneralElectionNow Enough is enough.

I said it before, I’ll say it again GENERAL ELECTION NOW!
I repeat #energybills Why is every household getting £400 off energy bills. A significant proportion of households could absorb the extra cost, so it could be directed at those who can’t. I’m giving my rebate to charity.

#PrimeMinister. UK. Given the current list of candidates for PM, Larry the Cat has plenty of experience of being at No 10, is likeable and would probably go down well with the civil servants who actually make the decisions.
@AtomHelp Actually I’ve put the wrong phone number in my last tweet to you. Others have had same text. Please tweet explanation.
Coronavirus and Brexit and we’re stuck with politicians like Boris and Priti Patel. Help!
I’ve got to admit it. I don’t like #Christmaspudding.
Time for Boris the #smirk Johnson to leave the stage. We need better people to get us out of this Brexit mess.
#coronavirus For goodness sake, if lockdown has been shown to work, why on earth go back to the incomprehensible tier system. I prefer #loneliness to fear. The economy will bounce back and maybe lessons will be learned about prudent budgeting/ less credit.
How about mentioning adoption possibilities.

Replying to @BBCWomansHour
@BBCWomansHour Perhaps it’s time some of the older couples still trying IVF should start considering adoption. So many children need loving homes.
