Why are the unions striking over proposed changes to our pensions?
UNISON and UCU would like to invite all staff and students to the following open meetings to explain:
“What are the proposed changes to our pension schemes – why are the unions striking?”
NORTH
Wednesday 16 November 2011
13:00-14:00
Room: TG-30, ‘Henry Thomas Room’
The government has proposed significant changes to public sector pension schemes that London Met staff are members of (LGPS/ LPFA, USS and TPS). The government want us to pay more, work longer and get less.
Public sector unions (including UNISON and UCU) are in dispute with the government over these detrimental (and in our view unnecessary) changes and, after balloting all relevant members, announced the first day of strike action on 30th November.
Come to these open meetings (all welcome) for up to date info and find out how this will affect YOU…

UNISON - Fighting for decent pensions
UNISON members will be taking action on 30 November to defend their pensions, after they voted overwhelmingly to join the TUC co-ordinated day of action .
Pressure from UNISON, including the ballot of more than a million members, has seen the government move significantly from its original proposals.
But at the moment, all the government has spelled out is outline principles - there are no detailed offers for the different public service pension schemes that members can make a decision on.
UNISON will continue to negotiate on our members' behalf right up until 30 November and we will consult members when any firm offer is received.
Until we have a firm offer, we need to keep up the pressure and proceed with our plans for action on 30 November alongside other public sector unions and the TUC.
Resources and information to help your branch plan for action are available on these pages.
Your pension is under attack - join us in defending it.
