It is the supreme irony. Tory Chancellor George Osborne, chose Gordon Brown to announce measures which he hopes will convince Scots to vote against independence. In 1997 Gordon Brown raided pension schemes, costing savers £100 billion, a sum equal to the entire annual economic output of Ireland, or 50 years of Tescos annual profits at £2bn a year. Osborne said then: His pension raid was one of his first and worst acts as Chancellor. Pensioners will be paying a heavy price for many, many years to come. What has changed his mind? PANIC!!
