Not sure how the pensions work in the UK but here in the US you decide how your pension is invested. If you don't like the stock market invest your pension in something else.

Sounded to me like it was a genuine attempt at a joke - trouble is, he made it 45 years too late! No one would have raised an eyebrow in 1970
I think they would, because he would have been being interviewed by John Arlott.
Yes, but he would have been saying it about Arlott's secretary standing nearby wearing a Barbara Windsor blouse and microskirt
Looks like Corbyn can't organise a simple cull without cocking it up. Nice contrast with Dave, who has abandoned imposing discipline on his cabinet, while Jezza wants to but can't with the shadow cabinet. The irony of someone who voted against his party over 500 times demanding 'loyalty' may not have been missed by his colleagues.
What a couple of twats. No wonder politicians are so despised.

I bet Cameron can't believe his luck, so much for an opposition to hammer him with and they're busy hammering each other while becoming unelectable...
So about 1,000 young men of Arab or North African appearance that spoke neither German nor English have carried out serious sexual assaults on at least 80 women in Cologne. Women were also targeted in Hamburg. At least one woman was raped. Most of the crimes reported to police were robberies. A volunteer policewoman was among those sexually molested.
The organised nature of the attacks and the numbers involved beggar belief. You have to go back to the Vikings to find anything of this nature happening in Britain. Merkel's "800,000 are welcome to come and convert to being a German overnight" invitation is not looking so clever now. If these gangs try this on in East Germany, there'll be serious blood spilt.
But no doubt they'll all be applying for EU membership, so expect to see them over here soon...

We have civil war on both sides of the Commons. I can only see it getting worse during 2016
Truly shocking, and possibly a turning point. Actually makes me feel sick, and strangely guilty and angry, sitting in my house with two female family members. Of course all these ****s have mothers too.
Sadly, they are here already Goldie, but better organised, ask the estimated 1400 victims of the Rotherham scandal. And not all of them are immigrants.
It's representative of the terrible stuff that's perpetrated against women in the Middle East, North Africa, Pakistan and even India. This is why mass immigration into Europe was such a mistake. With huge numbers, the authorities don't get a chance to focus on individuals to change deep set and deeply wrong beliefs and practices.
Liberal Europe is learning it the hard way. I mean no disrespect, but it does worry me that given its history, Germany may lurch from one extreme to another
Six weeks after his 'we are the champions' Autumn statement wee Georgie O is saying our economic lives are at risk because of entirely predictable events in China and the Middle East that he has no control over. Run away, run away!
The fantasy world of global finance based on imaginary rules, panic and repeated greed based crashes would be funny if it didn't harm so many innocents. Even previously lucrative hedge funds, which made money out of identifying value, are closing down as they can't make margins when computer based algorithms dominate trading, a world where analysis is trumped by algebra. Soon we'll be back looking at alchemy and astrology.

The Tory government is completely responsible for these global events.
Yep, New Labour made a real mistake believing what their 'friends' in the City told them. Won't happen with Jezza though. He hasn't got any friends, anywhere. He just has 'comrades'.No, but nor did they go around boasting it could never happen...
