Public sector workers are living in cloud cuckoo land.

They'll wake up one day and wonder why they lost their jobs never mind their pensions.

Wind up, I was being deadly serious. I am pretty left wing, but no one can hold the views you do and not be a militant Socialist Workers Party supporting local council operative and probable shop steward with a commitment to do a full 2.5 hours work a day whether it kills you or not

as i stated at start a whole lot of jealousy here.

mr f1 why dont you go and get a council job then?

im miffed as to why you havent managed that yet, from your stance its a case of , well if im not getting it, then nobody will! - are you now going to take your ball home? lol

how do you think people in the public sector got work? just fell into employment? no, they went out seeked employment and got it, same as you did. this is same people that usually get slagged off for being lazy, job dodging *****. but now it turns out your not getting as good a deal, so if your going down everyone is, lol. ridiculous.

are you as jealous of everyone in managemnt positions or ceo's, because there doing better than you also?

as said from very begining - jealousy.

Oh dear

How on earth did you get any of that from what I posted? You have a very twisted view on this.

I am not remotely jealous , but even if I was my circumstances good or bad (none of which you know) have no bearing on the cast iron FACT that UK PLC cannot afford to honour these pension agreements etc.

The public sector is employed by the country and the country cannot afford it! Go and look at the figures from the OBR.... independent figures that are nothing to do with the government ... they say the same thing! End of discussion, no amount of striking or moaning is going to produce this money from thin air.

And that has nothing to do with how well or bad I am getting on ... there is no connection!

I think strikes are bolloxs but what I do think the government should do is:
The current people on the old system either offer them a package to take a cut or shut up and leave them to. Reduce foreigen & asilum aid until they die off.

Any new people offer them a really poor one until this **** ry can manage to increase it.

The public sector management epitomises everything that is the Peter Principle.
