Can I collect Social Security and pensions if I live in England

Can I collect Social Security and pensions if I live in England?
If I move to England at around age 40 do I still have the right to collect Social Security from the USA because I worked there for over 20 years? Also, I worked a union job for 14 years and am vested in their pension plan. Do I collect that as well? Is there such a thing as Social Security in the Uk?

Yes, you'd be eligible, but the amount would be based on 20 years of income as if you'd earned it over 35. If you are a US citizen, you would still be required to file a tax return every year if your income was high enough. If you are not a US citizen, the SSA will withhold 22.5% for taxes.
