Title: Pension security given recent turmoil
Post by JakeF on Oct 19^th, 2022, 8:50am

Had a quick chat with the Pensions team in Cardiff about my login online and happened to say "Are we OK with our Old Benefits pensions etc given the incompetent and useless government we have is trying to destroy everyone's future?'. Very diplomatically the call centre lady was serenely calm and professional. No panic. Very clever people (not difficult to be more clever than Jimmy Dimly and other Government ministers) are looking after our interests and the pension fund is sound. Phew. Since they hate everything about the BBC wouldn't surprise me if they saw damaged to the various BBC pension schemes as a good result.

Good to know the pensions are in safe hands.

I wonder if the tone of your posting is an indication of the apparent left-wing bias in the present BBC?
This isn't the place to exhibit political opinions.
