    Historically The Daily Express only did two types of story, Diana and the weather
    Since the loss of Diana they have struggled to find another cause to champion
    They have a bee in their bonnet about poor hard done by pensioners.
    If they didn't have highly sensationalist and misleading stories their pages would be empty.
    I think a lot of it is as much for clickbait than to buy the actual paper nowadays.

    Reach plc. Say no more. Except, possibly, to add "Reporter could well be AI".
    I'm often left wondering if there is a human reviewing some of this stuff. It's often difficult to find a link between the story and the headline.

    At least we could make robust comments about Daily Express "journalists" chewing the carpet - how can we insult the AI bots to make ourselves feel superior? Oh dear, what have I said.......................?

    Forced!! I hope the gun pressed against his head didn't leave a lasting dent.

    I think his retirement plans will be the thing with a lasting dent though - nice bit of loss crystallisation there, and at 34years of age. 

    Sigh

    In fact you can not just move pension to an ISA at age 34.
    This basic fact seems to have sunk in as the headline has changed to ' moved pension to cash' .
