I think it's much more likely that the state pension will become means tested

not sure how that could be squared off with the concept of "National Insurance". I realise that it's only a concept, but even so....

Well, yes, exactly why it's a political hot potato. However, most of us know that NI is just another tax on income, and that money isn't invested into a pension scheme for future generations, it just goes straight into the government's coffers to be spent in the very near term.
