Lots of discussion recently from @timleunig & others on how redressing the pay & pensions balance in the public sector could aid recruitment. I asked experts in edu, health and the civ service whether it'd help, and @stevewebb1 & @TheIFS how it'd work. inews.co.uk/inews-lifestyle/…

Lots of different perspectives on the state pension triple lock in @theipaper today after the news that Labour is planning to commit to it in its general election manifesto. 1) I’m 30 and the pension triple lock will never benefit me. It’ll make taxes rise inews.co.uk/inews-lifestyle/…
