Re: Pensions - no wonder there are strikes

Where does it say in any OFFICIAL government plans or proposals that the age is definitely to be raised to 68? All that there seems to be is a plan to look at the age, taking into account things like the nature of the work.

the Normal Pension Age will be subject to regular review. These reviews will consider the increasing State Pension Age and any changes to it, alongside evidence from interested parties, including unions and employers. It will consider if the Normal Pension Age of 60 remains relevant, taking account of the economical, efficient and effective management of the fire service, the changing profile of the workforce and the occupational demands of, and fitness standards for, firefighting roles
If you want to keep the final salary scheme, you have to contribute more into it.
