I believe the UK's austerity measures means the maximum state pension is only 53 quid/month.£53.00 a month? I don't think so....
Its £110.15 per week at present...

Obviously retiring in China, a non reciprocal agreement country, means a frozen pension at the point you left UK and you need 30 years contributions for the full amount..And if a retiree defers their pension claim for a few years, then they can get an enhanced pension or lump sum..

This is interesting. Now your figure is right, but I know you will get extra if you are married even if your wife is 40 years your junior- well, you will if you live in the UK; but what about Foxy Poster, will he get extra for his Chinese wife, both of them living in China? I know that i will be getting more than the £110.15- I assume that's because i have a Chinese wife. I have always paid my contribution when away from UK.
