Online Parliamentary Yearbook: We need a root and branch review of ALL benefits with a view to providing any that survive on the basis of NEED. And need should be defined as meeting basic requirements of life - not luxuries.
That review should include Public Servant Platinum Pensions - no one in retirement NEEDS a pension that is more than the average national wage.
The maximum any high earner should be paid in retirement is the average national wage, currently £26k. Over a retirement of 30 years that would be a total of £780k - no where near close to what has been paid in.
Anyone who thinks they may DESIRE more can make provision for it through a private pension.
