[shadow=red,left,300]Labour to create divided society over pensions crisis[/shadow]

Labour's army bureaucrats get favoured pension plans
"You peasants must work until you drop, to pay for us and our friends to retire early on good pensions at the age of 60." That's the message from Blair and New Labour to every single hardworking Briton.
Chancellor Gordon Brown has done more than any person alive to create Britain's pensions crisis, by stealing billions of pounds every year in extra taxes from pension funds. And a succession of Labour Home Secretaries have made things even worse by allowing unprecedented levels of illegal immigration by millions of spongers who've never paid a penny in to our welfare state, but who drain our social services, health and housing budgets white.
Divided society
Now, Labour's parasite army of town hall bureaucrats, pen pushers on Quangos, race equality councils, commissions and assorted Jobsworths have been told that they can keep their big pensions and early retirement at sixty, while all the rest of us in the private sector or self-employed are going to have to work until we're at least sixty seven - and then retire on a pittance.
There are some state sector workers who should be allowed to retire early: Nurses, for example, simply cannot be expected to do the job they do after the age of sixty. Likewise, male council manual workers, such as bin- and road-men, do socially essential jobs which tend to wreck their backs and are unsuitable for most men over the age of sixty.
By contrast, there is absolutely no reason why civil servants, town hall bureaucrats, social workers and teachers should be allowed to retire seven years earlier than everyone else. The only reason Blair and Co have come up with this plan is that these middle class public sector desk warriors are overwhelmingly Labour voters. Giving them an ultra-generous retirement package is nothing more or less than naked cronyism.
Measures to make a difference
Thanks to a generation of economic and social mismanagement by a succession of Tory and Labour governments, Britain does face a pensions crisis. But the answer is not to featherbed Labour's core voters and work everyone else to death. The proper answer, the BNP answer, is to:
• Raise the standard retirement age to sixty seven, with exceptions - such as nurses and manual workers in tough trades - decided by physical reality not party political bias;
• Help close the skills gap by allowing people who are able and willing to work past retirement age to do so on a special low tax rate, and with their undrawn pension money building up for when they retire;
• Invest heavily in ultra modern mechanisation so that machines and robots do more of the donkey work in our society. Britain has fallen so far behind countries such as Japan in this field that catching up is not only essential, but will also be relatively easy because we can adopt their technology without paying a fortune for research;
• Undertake a massive crash course in retraining the millions of redundant 'old economy' workers who have been dumped on the long-term sick and early retirement lists as a way of fiddling down the unemployment figures. Giving these people back their dignity, self-reliance and pride wouldn't just help solve the pensions crisis, it would also cut the financial and human waste and health tragedies that spring from the plight of working men who are told that their work is all done and they are worthless;
[glow=red,2,300]• Stop the mass immigration that is stretching our social services and health budgets to breaking point.[/glow]
These are common sense measures that should and could be easily implemented but because Labour is so desperate to cling on to power at any cost, the comfort of New Labour voters comes before everything else.
