Rob W 0 Posted November 20, 2010 Share Posted November 20, 2010 why I should be weeping is ratehr obscure - I 'm not a Civil Servant and I don't like their pensions - the civil service offers a pretty good pension scheme. Contributions to the premium scheme are only 3.5%, but the employer is charged another 22% on top By the way would this Gus O'Donnell who wrote the article be Gus O'Donnell the former cabinet secretary and head of the Home Civil Service "Sir Gus O’Donnell, the head of the Civil Service, on £239,999" He's probably on fair whack - 3x annual salary as a pension bonus,plus at least 35/80 of his salary as pension = £ 105,000 a year pension minimum Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

As head of the Home Civil Service, I am acutely conscious of the impact of this misrepresentation.... the sneaky bastard Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
