Pensions

The Government wants you to pay more, work longer and get less.

· Pay more: your contributions could rise by more than 50%

· Work longer: you may have to work to age 68 or even longer for a full pension

· Get less: you will get a lower pension if you choose to retire at 60 and lose further tens of thousands of pounds during your retirement due to the switch from RPI to CPI

For more information about pensions and the planned action go to the page on pensions by clicking on the Pensions tab
