So glad of a civil service pension.

No I hadn't seen that. I guess the current system isn't sustainable at all, but 70 and 75 seems quite old to still.be working, esp if a physical role.
Surprised at IDS saying that he supported that though.

Not sure it matters if you have a civil service pension or not tbh. I think it's tied to the state pension age. Alpha anyway.
