Jane Wrightson: Retirement Commissioner on the discussion about the retirement age

Discussions about raising the retirement age have continued to grow, with economist Shamubeel Eaqub suggesting that it should slowly be raised to 70 and means tested. France has been rocked by violent protests over the past month in response to President Macron’s plan to raise the retirement age from 62 to 64. Labour says it will keep our retirement age at 65 while National has pledged to raise it to 67. Retirement Commissioner Jane Wrightson joined Kerre Woodham to discuss the situation.
