Sorry to break it to you Jan but pensions do not work like that. They are a Ponzi scheme which only pay out to those who are at the top (pensioners) as long as even more at the bottom (tax payers) keep coughing up.
There is no 'Sovereign Wealth Fund' that your contributions have been paid in to. Nor have they been invested in such as armaments, gambling, oil firms or tobacco where they might have made an excellent return.
Every single penny that you have 'paid in' has already been spent by the government.
Fortunately
most pensioners have never had it so good with triple locks on national pension and index linked final salary pensions the likes of which my children will never see + more savings than they have ever had since they haven't been spending on eating out and foreign holidays over the past two years - which is why UK taxes have hit their highest level in 70 years & the average total lifetime tax bill will rocket past £1.1 million.!
Back on topic a small warning (I do not wish to give these people publicity).
Various 'social media' are calling 'patriots' to a mass rally inn Dover on 4 June to 'stand up against illegal immigration'.
