    It is perfectly possible that for somebody who had 35 years and never contracted out there would be an entitlement to a pension higher than full new state pension.
    Indeed - I wasn't trying to cover every eventuality but perhaps I should have said "at least"!

    Everybody should obtain a state pension forecast.
    Definitely. The only way to know current situation for sure is to get a state pension forecast.
    Information I post is for England unless otherwise stated. Some rules may be different in other parts of UK.
