'The problem is not fair and proper public sector pensions, but the retreat by private sector employers from their responsibilities. The solution is to level-up, not strip away pensions from vital public servants.'
The most important questions are why are private sector DC schemes so bad, and what do we do about it. Everyone sensible in the pensions industry acknowledges that the contribution rates to DC schemes are far too low to pay out pensions anything like as good as the DB schemes they replaced. So let's fix the problem rather than trying to make all pension schemes equally bad.

Actually all pensions should be subsidised by the state, as these Billionaire banks have been bailed out-So private pensions should be equal to public ones. Why not-they found the money for the rich banking parasites-didn't they-Can't we have it for our pensions?
Well it's private sector pensions that are the problem, so it would make sense to think abouy how to improve them.
