In an effort to make it look as though we are all in this together, Cabinet Ministers are due to pay an extra 2.4% towards their final salary pension scheme that would equate to £229 more per year. That would be the type of final salary scheme the ConDems say is unaffordable for us.
However, according to the Daily Mail today, an MP has discovered that due to the complex nature of the scheme, those extra payments would result in each Cabinet Minister, including Francis Maude (below), receiving £339 per year more in retirement.

Francis Maude, Cabinet Minister
Loyal, hard working and low paid civil servants have to pay more, work longer and get less.
Ministers like Francis Maude pay more, work the same amount of time and get more.
All in this together, we don't think so!
