Talk:Timeline of State Pension age in the United Kingdom

Older History Needed
The concept of a pension long pre-dates 1908, the earliest year currently mentioned herein. I claim no expertise in the subject but Rudyard Kipling's In the Rukh, the first of the Mowgli stories, was published in 1893 and he felt comfortable having a character say, without any explanation, "Would it not be better to work for pay from the Government? There is a pension at the end of long service." Text Czrisher (talk) 02:05, 19 February 2013 (UTC)
 * This is a timeline for the state pensions, not those for provider by or on behalf of employers (even the government). Nick Cooper (talk) 09:57, 4 May 2016 (UTC)
