Brought into line with everyone else? I think the Police would be happy to be brought into line with the Armed Forces. Can we afford a non-contributory pension for the armed Forces. Perhaps the RAF, Navy and Army should now pay 14% of their gross pay into their pension scheme.
Cameron has nailed his colours to the mast. He's not interested in dealing with the benefit thieves or the business who avoid tax and vat. That's too hard. It's the PAYE earners he's after. And the first ones to suffer are those that can't take industrial action.
