How much of an increase in personal contributions would people be willing to tolerate? I was once told by a financial advisor that if asked to increase to 12% to say yes. Purely on the quality of the scheme. Should we increase contributions to help maintain the viability of the scheme, which so many rightly say is ours, or does it all have to come from the employer?

Mr Jones,

Some areas may have run dry but all I said was I didn't experience disruption to my daily routine. Unlike when the refineries were blockaded a few years ago.

The following article is an indication of how the press can construct an article to begin a backlash.

Certainly not an attack but shows how the seeds can be placed to turn an article either way dependent on how the editor's perceive public opinion.
