AFPS and state pension increase from next April.
I have never understood the logic of not uprating pensions of those who emigrate to some countries and not others. Seems even more illogical when it applies in Commonwealth countries. If it was an occupational or private pension you had paid into they could not deny increases, so why block State pension increases that people have contributed too. Surely of no interest to "host" nation, just UK Government being bloody minded it would seem. Probably some twist I do not know of

unless T. May is happy with £ parity with the Euro, rates will have to rise. I suspect we will see 0.5% before Christmas, 3% Base rate by 2020.

I don't own this space under my name. I should have leased it while I still could
MPN, our vote at the ballot box will have exactly the same weight as yours.
The only people who will accurately forecast the chances are WHill etc.

Ah, this is the PPRuNe we know and love! Enjoy your 3% - how much will those still serving get - and they will suffer the effects in their future pensions too.
I wonder, take 2 retired wg cdrs with 30 years service under AFPS 75: one retired on 1 Oct 2007, the other retired on 1 Oct 2017. How much will each receive as pension in Apr 18? I suspect the figures would be quite different!
