Some members of Tynwald are being called 'lazy' after approving sweeping changes to public sector pensions.
At the April sitting on Tuesday, the court voted 24-6 to streamline pensions for 7,000 public servants, which will see a new unified scheme replace the 15 separate ones currently in operation.
Angela Moffatt of Prospect acknowledges changes are needed, but is not impressed with the reasoning put forward by some members for making the decision:
Fundraiser for TT rider Maria Costello surpasses £220k
Motorsport legend is currently paralysed after breaking her back
Warmer than average May for Island
239 hours of sunshine recorded in the month
Manx BirdLife awarded funding for new warden
Over £28,000 provided by Dormant Asset Fund
Increased DfE support 'to tackle rising costs and global pressures'
Expanded eligibility and increased funding for support schemes
