Congratulations to Ralph Goodale, Canada’s High Commissioner to the UK, on receiving the Freedom of the City of London. A well-earned honour! Ralph has been an outstanding High Commissioner and a steadfast supporter of frozen UK state pensioners living in Canada. Well done, sir!

No tricks, just injustice”
🎃 No tricks, just a real-life horror story:

UK pensioners in Canada and Australia (and others) receive no annual increases to their UK State Pensions.
This Halloween, help us shine a light on this chilling policy.
It’s time to #EndFrozenPensions for good.

“The scary truth”
🕷 The scariest thing this Halloween?
It’s not witches or werewolves — it’s pensioners left out in the cold.
UK State Pensions for retirees in Australia and Canada remain frozen, costing thousands over a lifetime.
Let’s unfreeze the injustice.

“Frozen pensions are the real horror”
❄️ This Halloween, the real chill isn’t from ghosts or ghouls — it’s from frozen UK State Pensions.

400,000+ retirees abroad face a cold reality every single day.

Let’s #EndFrozenPensions and bring warmth back to fairness.

For UK State pensioners in Canada, our UK pensions are frozen. Same with Australia and other, mainly Commonwealth countries.
💔 Dignity shouldn’t depend on your postcode.

💷 UK State pensioners are struggling to live on £230/week.
But in 🇨🇦 Canada, many haven’t seen a single increase in 20+ years. Same in Australia and other, mainly Commonwealth countries.
⚖️ The injustice of #FrozenPensions is a double hit — and it’s time to end it.

Congratulations, @KodyBloisNS on being elected Chair of the Canada-UK Inter-Parliamentary Association

We look forward to working with you and @ParlDiplomacy to help end the long-standing injustice of frozen UK State pensions just because we live in Canada.

💬 Even the UK now admits the State Pension isn’t enough to live on.
So imagine what it’s like when yours is frozen for decades in Canada, Asutralia or other jurisdictions.
❌ No annual increases.
❌ No fairness.
❌ No dignity.

CANADA's International Trade Minister MANINDER SIDHU introduces a bill to implement the UK's accession to the Trans-Pacific Partnership. The UK is in the Pacific!?
Such MAGNANIMOUS gesture deserves a RECIPROCAL one from the UK. Such as UNFREEZING STATE PENSIONS!

@PM Starmer and the @DWP Ministers.

Over 400,000+ UK State Pensioners are denied annual inflation increases — simply because they live in countries like Canada and Australia. 🇨🇦🇦🇺
Why does the UK government allow such blatant discrimination?

Will you be the leaders of #Change and #EndFrozenPensions?
400,000+ UK State Pensioners have had their pensions frozen because of a 70-year-old discriminatory policy.
The injustice must end.

⚖️ @Keir_Starmer — show that you respect your own pensioners and #EndFrozenPensions.
The average frozen pension is just £65 a week.
@RachelReevesMP, it’s time to end the unfair freeze that has punished 400,000+ UK State Pensioners abroad.

‘Equity is for everyone’ is the promise that @Keir_Starmer has made to the UK.

Does this also include frozen pensioners?

There are 400,000+ UK state pensioners who feel like the odd duck out.

#EndFrozenPensions

End Frozen Pensions Campaign @endfrozenpensions.bsky.social · 24d

The UK government says they are for everyone. Does that include pensioners?

400,000+ frozen UK state pensioners struggle to survive because of rising costs. If @Keir_Starmer and @patmcfaddenmp want to make #change, start with frozen pensions.

#EndFrozenPensions

End Frozen Pensions Campaign @endfrozenpensions.bsky.social · 25d

UK state pensions are paid worldwide, but only some will increase with inflation, while others won’t.

@patmcfaddenmp Do you think it’s fair that ‘where’ people chose to retire determines if they can be financially stable in their retirement?

#EndFrozenPensions

End Frozen Pensions Campaign @endfrozenpensions.bsky.social · 26d

What is the number 1 problem facing 400,000+ UK State pensioners living abroad?

They have to survive on frozen pensions.

Will @Keir_Starmer and @patmcfaddenmp make a #change and #EndFrozenPensions?

Reflecting on the #InternationalDayofOlderPersons, we must continue to advocate for the 400,000+ frozen UK state pensioners living abroad, struggling to make ends meet.

@Keir_Starmer @RachelReevesMP will you please #EndFrozenPensions?

🔙 Flashback Friday 📸

UK State Pensioners protested outside the British High Commission in Ottawa to mark #IDOP2024.

The UK is the only OECD country to discriminate against its own retirees by refusing annual increases for frozen pensioners in Canada 🍁.

People hope that retirement is a time of security and peace of mind.

But for 400,000+ frozen pensioners, retirement is a constant battle to make ends meet.

After years of Tory neglect, will @Keir_Starmer and @RachelReevesMP bring change and #EndFrozenPensions?

End Frozen Pensions Campaign @endfrozenpensions.bsky.social · Oct 1

Today is #IDOP2025. Let’s remember the importance of a secure retirement. @Keir_Starmer 400,000+ UK State pensioners should not be left to survive on frozen pensions. Will you make a #change for the better? #EndFrozenPensions.

End Frozen Pensions Campaign @endfrozenpensions.bsky.social · Oct 1

On #InternationalDayofOlderPersons, what better way is there to celebrate our seniors by offering them a secure retirement?

@Keir_Starmer @RachelReevesMP It's time to take action and #EndFrozenPensions for 400,000+ British pensioners abroad. #IDOP2025

End Frozen Pensions Campaign @endfrozenpensions.bsky.social · Sep 30

Tomorrow is #InternationalDayofOlderPersons #IDOP2025
We mustn't forget the 400,000+ frozen UK State pensioners who are denied annual pension increases because they live in the wrong country.

@Keir_Starmer, @patmcfaddenmp will you recognize the contributions of #OlderPeople and #EndFrozenPensions?
