The Great Pensions Robbery: How the Politicians Betrayed Retirement

By Alex Brummer

Once Britain's pensions system was admired around the world. Now it is in tatters and vast numbers of us face the grim choice of enduring a poverty-stricken future or working until we drop. What on earth went wrong?

In The Great Pensions Robbery award-winning journalist Alex Brummer ventures into the corridors of power to find out how politicians bent on penny-pinching a bullied and ineffectual civil service and highly placed but unscrupulous individuals all played their part in fatally undermining a 100-year-old system. And as he convincingly argues the story is very far from being over.
