Quote of the day

Sir Bob Kerslake, head of the Civil Service, Permanent Secretary at the Department for Communities and Local Government, “It is absolutely clear that  we will have to work longer,”  told the House of Lords Committee on Public Service and Demographic Change. “There are really only three things you can do about pensions: one is to pay more when you are in work; the second is to work longer; and the third is to live with less when you retire. Probably all three are going to have to come into play here.”
