Independent Public Service Pensions Commission: The Hutton Report

Released today, the Hutton report attacks public sector pension:


  • Millions of public sector workers to work longer for lower pensions
  • State workers such as nurses, police and teachers to lose their final salary pensions and instead receive payments linked to their average salary over the course of their career
  • Members of the armed forces, police and firefighters -- who currently have a pension age of 50 or 55 -- should not not get their full pension until they are 60
The ConDem coalition are destroying public services: services that every individual within the United Kingdom will need and use. 

The cutting of hundreds of thousands of jobs from the public sector will undermine economic recovery and growth, as well as destroying the services themselves.

Unscrupulous politicians changed the law to attack the Civil Service Compensation scheme to cut jobs on the cheap.

Low paid public servants will be condemned to poverty pensions.

It is time to change:
