You can think what you want Hugh. Like I said the FACTS are there, and you can believe them or not.
The FBU don't want industrial action, it would be a last resort. They want a negotiated settlement based on FACTS. So it would be rather stupid of them to enter negotiations with fantasy figures.

Alan, in a previous thread you were trying to tell us that you were high management for a huge company...you have just blown that idea right out of the water.

Re: Pensions - no wonder there are strikes
Don't forget, any nasty evil companies who refused to hand over all their dividends would be immediately "subject to Iran like sanctions blah blah blah....."

In a world government, companies will either be state owned or co-operatives

I know there is a recession, the worst since the 1930s and was cuased by the rich themselfs (and the high risks they took and the economic system that benfits them)
My plan can be done with tax rises and a crackdown on tax evasion and avoidance

Re: Pensions - no wonder there are strikes
Apparently I just don't get it.
Well I'd be severely worried about my sanity if any of his 'arguments' made sense to me...
Anyway his reluctance to redistribute some of his wealth to the poor are duly noted and should be borne in mind each time we're subjected to one of his sermons....

So are all the pension companies (Teachers, NHS, Local Government) and Unite (and Unison, who say the same thing on their website) lying? Because their facts appear to contradict the FBU facts.
So I am misunderstanding the 60/68 statement - can you help clarify it, please - will firemen retire at 60, or not?
