I was talking to someone yesterday who is greek but she was born in the Ukraine and then moved to Russia and then later here and her parents moved back to Greece, She now lives here with her greek husband but her parents remain in Greece. She says that although her parents worked all their lives their pension rights possibly earned in Russia are not transferable here and they had not worked for long enough there for any entitlement so even though they are Greek citizens they have no pension income at all and rely on hand outs from family who are struggling to manage here.

There are so many stories that you hear now and I think we sometimes forget in our comfortable homes how difficult it is for so many people around the World.

I do so hope that 2016 is a better year for all

Well said Bossy Boots, may I fully concur.
Also, we should not forget the homeless on the streets of the UK. Let us hope they can find
something better in 2016.
