For many British ex-Pats the pension they worked hard for in the UK is not serving them as well as it should be here in Australia.

Unlike those living in the UK, the pensions for ex-pats living in commonwealth countries often are not indexed along with inflation, with it's value remaining frozen for those in Australia.
