The House of Lords has indicated that increasing the state pension age and expanding immigration are unlikely to effectively mitigate the challenges posed by the UK’s aging population. Demographic forecasts suggest a rising proportion of older individuals within the national population, which could lead to increased pressure on public welfare systems and healthcare services. Policy discussions are focusing on sustainable alternatives that do not solely rely on adjusting retirement age or on immigration as primary solutions. Experts emphasize that demographic shifts require comprehensive planning across economic, social, and health sectors to address the implications of an aging society.
