This man's first act as Chancellor ten years ago was to strip £5billion out of the pension funds which would have provided security in old age for millions. He has continued this raid every year since so that the funds are about £100billion cumulatively worse off now than they would have been and many final salary schemes have closed. Local authority schemes have also been put under pressure which has inevitably been passed on the the Council Tax payer as contributions have had to be uprated to make up for the shortfall.

If the opinion polls are to be believed the voters of this country are going to let him get away with it for the third time running.....
