Re: Pensions - no wonder there are strikes
You forgot to mention that the employers contribute 21.3%....
And according to this consultation document, a firefighter would need to be on £120,000 to pay an additional 2.3%.

btw, I thought Hutton had recommended 60 as a retirement age for firefighters - where did 68 come from?
