Commenting, Liberal Democrat Shadow Chancellor Susan Kramer said:
"This report confirms what we already knew: that the Tories are taking people for granted.
"This Conservative government has done nothing to tackle falling wages and has chosen to cut working-age benefits.
"They are now threatening to make the pay squeeze even worse through their relentless pursuit of a Hard Brexit.
"We always knew that the young were struggling to save for their old age, now it turns out those middle-aged and older are as well.
"This election is chance to change Britain's' future, prevent a disastrous hard Brexit and protect people's living standards from slipping further in the years ahead."
PCC for Grantham and Stamford, Anita May commented
"Older low and middle-income people are going to struggle if Theresa May follows through with her threat of a Hard Brexit.
As the economy starts to suffer, pensioners' savings will struggle to make decent returns and companies responsible for paying pensions will see their profits fall too.
We already have a company pension scheme black hole.... Brexit will make things much worse in the years ahead'.
