MN officers Pension fund
Just reading that the Thief Reeves is eyeing up Private pension funds.
The MNOPF I am sure will fall under her beady eyes .
In the link below is the Pension funds members news letter.
If I have read it correctly there is currently assets worth £1950 Million in the pot. Pensions for last year paid out was £155 million to about 21,500 pensioners and dependents.
Just wondering what the average age is for those who recieve their pensions from the now closed fund. MUst be at least 65+. I wonder what will happen to the monies held by the funds new operators when the last claiment crosses the bar. Someone somewhere is going to end up with a few quid.
Even without re investment of funds and they paid out the same £155 millions it would take over 12 years to exhaust the pot. Okay I have not taken into account salaries paid to fund managers or staff.
I bet Reeves will be getting her hands into the kitty.

I believe the fund is now operated by Nautilus International

Hope she keeps her hands off the MNOPF as me and many like me are very happy with our pensions from them.

The problem is that all govs have very long arms capable of reaching into any pocket no matter the size.
They are nothing more than blood sucking feral parasites.
