Remove the Veterans WAR PENSION classification as an INCOMME

Rejected 10 signatures

What the petition asks

In all cases a veteran under pension age, receives this due to an injury from active service defending the UK, most are unable to work because of this, but when they get their WAR PENSION, the Government removes the amount from their benefits, so in actual fact, you ONLY receive £10 WAR PENSION
