What strange creatures crawl on the net?‏

The internet is awash with unbeliveable nonsense about public sectorpensions, how has a crisis started by bankers ended up with it being blamed upon public sector pensions? Well the answer maybe found on the blog of a publically funded BBC journalist Robert Peston. Doing his duty for the cause of mass hysteria and mistruths about our pensions he claims that the recently announced Public Sector Pensions Commission's duty is to save the country from bankruptcy. http://www.bbc.co.uk/blogs/thereporters/robertpeston/


The only bankruptcy is that of gutter journalism particularly from someone who we assume pays into the BBC pension scheme, which of course is met by those of us who buy a TV license. Peston may think he is doing the government a favour and so in the round protects his own pension. Obviously he doesn't remember that an injury to one is an injury to all and it will only be a matter of time before the hounds of austerity are howling at his door.
