What's so special about Johnny
Last week here in Ireland a single unmarried man was granted a widowers pension ...all I could think was WTF
doesn't anything hold up anymore these days, or is this societies way to discredit marriage, with the hope maybe to abolish it
When Johnny met the love of his life, for whatever reason they never married, had three lovely children, shared a mortgage.. in total they were cohabiting 20yrs together.
Unfortunately 2018/19 she developed breast cancer, that's when after nearly 18yrs living together they decided to get married, unfortunately though in December 2019 she developed Covid and shortly afterwards died resulting in they never got married.
He thinking he had the right, applied for the widowers pension grant, when he was refused he took it to the supreme court and won.
Not that I'm without sympathy for the man and his loss, but in my books that's not right at all. When he wasn't married he was not entitled to it, simple as, end of
what's anyone's opinion on this???
Johnny is a very clever man is what I think.
