What assessment he has made of the potential impact of changes to the Mineworkers Pension Scheme on the living standards of the recipients of that pension.

Reply

I am proud that we have finally ended the injustice of the Mineworkers’ Pension Scheme. Miners across the country powered our economy for decades, working in the toughest environments. They should not have had to fight so long for a fair pension. The party opposite had 14 years to end this injustice but did nothing. Within 4 months we have ended the scandal. That’s the difference a Labour government makes.
