Sorry McB.
Have to disagree.
As a forty something I'd be pretty hacked off if other tax payers were arbitarily made millionaires out of public money.
Mind you....Maybe if it were to extend it to the over forties so there was something in it for me I'd possibly come round to the idea???? LOLOLOL *tongue firmly in cheek*

Another easy way would be to get out of the EU. Give no more money in aid,get rid of all illegal imigrants,Send Clegg and co back to Last of the Summer Wine.and generally get our own house in order by informing the MPs we have elected, they are our employees and as such do what they are employed to do, not faff about fiddling expenses,none will be paid without a valid reciept.Oh, and keep out of wars we should not be in irispective of what the USA wants us to do.**M**.

2) What British car?
3) A lot of over 50s own their homes. It's the young(er) people who are having problems getting mortgages, due to the house prices rising but wages not going up proportionally.
4) What happens if the child(ren) are not cut out for college/university?
5) More problems for the already overburdened NHS to cope with.
Do you really want pensioners locked up in 6 foot by 6 foot cells?
Agree with Sue.

You missed a bit
"think about this ... If you don't want to forward this for fear of offending someone -- YOU ARE PART OF THE PROBLEM! It is time for us grumpy old folk of Britain to speak up! "
It sounds like one of those silly emails that originates in the US and is changed to suit the country.
I received a horrible one the other day railing about immigrants in our country (Aus.). It was bigoted and hateful and it was supposedly by a Vietnam war veteran but obviously not Australian. The person who sent it was very surprised when I asked her not to send me anymore and that I was very offended by it. She hadn't even read it just passed it on.
Oh....and I don't want my mother in prison. She might have all these amenities but she won't be able to go out shopping, visit her friends for lunch or go on bus trips. She wouldn't be able to sit in her own garden, watch whatever she wants on the television and go out to the movies. Prison is prison whatever the so-called "luxuries".

Agreed - especially swapping pensioners & prisoners.
Let's have an AV on it.

As a Scot - I certainly will.
Although I doubt there are many (if any) Tory councillors up there!

Initial posting is a tad ambiguous.
'Prime Minister Of England' - no such title, I believe. Maybe the Scots, Welsh & Northern Irish would back me up on this!

Now here is a letter to ourPrime Minister but it could also work in other countries but I think most other countries are not as bad.
?
Dear Mr. Cameron,
Please find below our suggestion for fixing England 's economy.
Instead of giving billions of pounds to banks that will squander the money on lavish parties and unearned bonuses, use the following plan.
You can call it the Patriotic Retirement Plan:
There are about 10 million people over 50 in the work force.
Pay them £1 million each severance for early retirement with the following stipulations:
1) They MUST retire.
Ten million job openings - unemployment fixed
2) They MUST buy a new British car.
Ten million cars ordered - Car Industry fixed
3) They MUST either buy a house or pay off their mortgage -
Housing Crisis fixed
4) They MUST send their kids toschool/college/university -
Crime rate fixed
5) They MUST buy £100 WORTH of alcohol/tobacco a week .....
and there's your money back in duty/tax etc
6) Instead of stuffing around with the carbon emissions trading scheme that makes us pay for the major polluters, tell the greedy b******s to reduce their pollution emissions by 75% within 5 years or we shut them down.
It can't get any easier than that!
P.S. If more money is needed, have all members of parliament pay back their falsely claimed expenses and second home allowances.
If you think this would work, please forward to everyone you know.
If not, please disregard.

Let's put the pensioners in jail and the criminals in a nursing home.
This way the pensioners would have access to showers, hobbies and walks.
They'd receive unlimited free prescriptions, dental and medical treatment, wheel chairs etc and they'd receive money instead of paying it out.
They would have constant video monitoring, so they could be helped instantly, if they fell, or needed assistance.
Bedding would be washed twice a week, and all clothing would be ironed and returned to them.
A guard would check on them every 20 minutes and bring their meals and snacks to their cell.
They would have family visits in a suite built for that purpose.
They would have access to a library, weight room, spiritual counselling, pool and education.
Simple clothing, shoes, slippers, PJ's and legal aid would be free, on request.
Private, secure rooms for all, with an exercise outdoor yard, with gardens.
Each senior could have a PC a TV radio and daily phone calls.
There would be a board of directors to hear complaints, and the guards would have a code of conduct that would be strictly adhered to.
The criminals would get cold food, be left all alone and unsupervised. Lights off at 8pm, and showers once a week. Live in a tiny room and pay £600.00 per week and have no hope of ever getting out.
Think about this (more points of contention):

COWS
Is it just me, or does anyone else find it amazing that during the mad cow epidemic our government could track a single cow, born in Appleby almost three years ago, right to the stall where she slept in the county of Cumbria?
And, they even tracked her calves to their stalls. But they are unable to locate 125,000 illegal immigrants wandering around our country. Maybe we should give each of them a cow.
