Police pensions are good but I think that they have to pay 11% of their gross wage for the priviledge(?). I don't know of any other employees who pay as much.
The public sector pensions are unsustainable. So, either pension contributions increase or pension rights are lessened.
The other alternative would be to take no pension contributions from the public sector and tell them to make their own arrangements

Just so you know... The Local Government schemes are SELF FUNDING i.e the money is invested so it can pay out the pensions. I presently pay 7.2% of my salary into my pension - only 6% actually goes into 'my pot' with the other 1.2% going towards pensions for lower paid workers. This I don't mind. What really pisses me off is the Government has said (not negiotated) I'm going to have to pay another 3% from April and this won't go into the pot, it's going to the Treasury, in other words it's another form of tax. This is on top of a 4 year pay freeze, working longer and getting less. Cheers!
