Petition update, 01 February 2008

More details from petition creator

Since the £10 pensioners Christmas bonus was introduced in 1972, it has never been increased for inflation and today enjoys the equivalent purchasing power of just £1.15.

To make the bonus more meaningful, the sum should be doubled to £20 and increased in line with inflation thereafter.
