ChrisT70 Posted March 4, 2011 Share Posted March 4, 2011 They are saying that a teachers pension contribution is going up by £1200 by 2014. as long as the schemes are fully affordable and dont take the pee, people may have to contribute more to retain a final salary pension, it is fair.

Rupert_Baehr Posted March 5, 2011 Share Posted March 5, 2011 They are saying that a teachers pension contribution is going up by £1200 by 2014. But put that into perspective: £1200 a year. Equivalent to less than the price of one pint of beer a week (at 2014 prices.) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
scoop Posted March 5, 2011 Share Posted March 5, 2011 just to prove how crazy the world is, with normal working people clamouring for cuts to each other, the now departed boss of BP who presided over the monumental c**k up that polluted half of the gulf of mexico has apparently left with a £13.8 million pension pot and an annual pension of £680,000 for his efforts during his term at BP anyone else hoping to join their BIG society in the near future? Precisely, the press and government have always been very good collaberating to getting the general public to bicker amongst themselves to deflect them from the real problem. You can bet neither the bankers nor the politicians will be scratching a living when they retire. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Darth Vader Posted March 5, 2011 Share Posted March 5, 2011 But put that into perspective: £1200 a year. Equivalent to less than the price of one pint of beer a week (at 2014 prices.) You're quite right. The way the economy is going, it'll probably cost £24.00 for a pint of beer within 3 years. Heaven knows what the cost of fuel will be...
