A letter from the Minister,
and another from a prospective Minister

The collection of letters here are from politicians of various colours. In the letter from Tony Blair and the one from Alistair Darling when he was in opposition, we seem to have some commitment to righting the injustice of frozen pensions.

But the one from Darling once he got into government indicates that he turned his coat.

Ministers say that mere money matters more than morality.

This one from Tony Blair when in opposition

Letter from Alistair Darling when in opposition

 

And another when Darling was in government

 

When Mr McCartney wrote this letter, he was an opposition back bencher. More recently he was the Minister for pensions.

He is now Minister Without Portfolio, and Party Chairman.

Letter from Nigel Evans, Vice Chairman of the Conservative Party

Letter from Archie Norman - Conservative MP

 

 

Note: Mr Willetts is incorrect in assuming that the termination of the Social Security Agreement has extended the frozen pension problem. In fact, Australia terminated the agreement because the UK Government  refused even to talk about abolishing the freezing regime.
