SORRY, National Association of Pension Funds (Evening News, Monday, December 6) but I don't agree that "it would take six years to bring the State Pension up to at least £105 a week."

All it needs is for individual pensioners, the myriad of pensioner's alliances, forums, advisory groups, conventions and campaigns to forget their political allegiances and committee mentality to support a pledge to pensioners.

This would be a pledge that should be put to government and their ministers, all political parties, individual MPs and MEPs.

These people should be told that pensioners require a state pension of £105 a week, payable within 90 days.

Yes or no?
