@worlizzyk@paulwham500@LeeHurstComic There arent better pension schemes available for a lot of people elsewhere though. In private sector depending on who you work for i get no pension cont on commission, just basic. On a high salary it would take 10 years work in the private sector to match 1 years in public…
@worlizzyk@paulwham500@LeeHurstComic Its index linked potentially for 30 plus years and guaranteed. You could have opted out and invested in the markets or was that not a risk factor you wished to do?
@worlizzyk@LeeHurstComic I don’t think you realise the generosity of this compared to the private sector. To get 14k a year index linked for life in the private sector thats what a 250k pot. Average pot someone retires at in the private sector is about £150k.
@worlizzyk@LeeHurstComic So look at the average nhs pension over 40 years service - thats accrues to 35k or so. Thats on career earnings not really going beyond 40k.
@MrWinMarshall Cost it out - any Western society cant have a sensible welfare safety net and illegal migration on this scale. You can have one or the other.
@EssexPR This is not a nil sum game. Another 100k loses more votes than that. Labour can only be wishing to entrench this population over the next 3 years - to stymie attempts at remigration.
