What everyone forgets about public service employees, is the nice final salary pension they get,upon retirement at 55. Now factor that in to those figures… Bearing in mind your average private sector employee works till they are 66, with no guarantee of what there pension if any will be worth. So when public sector employee stops working at 55, and draws their £20k min a year pension the figures sent that bad … But the lefties never see that.You could try reading the following? But beware: the facts might interfere with your opinion.
civilservant.org.uk/informa … sions.htmlWhile it is hard to dispute the figures in the table they don’t truly reflect the increasing number of senior civil servants, heads of councils or NHS senior management who are retiring on pensions that are increasingly unaffordable and obscene in there amount. Civil servants being able to claim more than one pension form different government departments even thought hey have spent their entire career working for the government, retiring claiming a pension the being reemployed as a consultant, meanwhile the low paid paying for it all through tax and then having nothing to retire on themselves.
As an example take a look at the public funded pensions the Kinnocks are going to retire on from their various government jobs and they claim to be socialists!!!
Taking a unique case (the Kinnocks) is hardly to “an example” is it?
And what figures do you have concerning the increasing number of retirees?
As someone who has had more than one private employer, I have had more than one private pension. If a Civil Servant has been employed by more than Dept then why wouldnt they be excluded from the same rights to multiple pensions? Remembering that a full pension is dependent on length of service, and if anyone has multiple serial jobs they cant possibly qualify for the max in all of them, can they?
