Denmark is set to have the highest retirement age in Europe after its parliament adopted a law raising it to 70 by 2040.
The retirement age at 70 will apply to all people born after 31 December 1970.
No, they won’t, as you can see, they enjoy being politicians and keeping their power well into their 90s, it’s not a factory job. The only defense of that is that they represent (badly) older populations of retirees from shit jobs.
There’s a lot of politicians that retire way sooner. It was a thing that was discussed when they raised the retirement age in my European country.
