one hundred eighty nine words our debt as a proportion of our g.d.p. was double what it is now then we build millions of houses schools hospitals the welfare recognizing actually economically these cuts will make it worse far better to cut the deficit by employing people who then pay tax and insurance rather than throw them onto welfare where actually they depress the economy and we think make things worse you've said that the government cuts just attack working people but how do you think the strikes. affects the. ruling class is what having three quarters of a million people from four different unions on strike is something that doesn't happen in this country for decades it's the start not the finish to the government is will come back in the autumn when we may well see millions of people on strike so the idea is to build pressure so the government realize that working people the length and breadth of the u.k. are not just going to let them get away with what they're doing and we believe that
10:32 pm
pressure forced them to change direction the government's bill for pensions at the moment is around thirty billion pounds which does seem excessive a lot of money how do you suggest that they would you say. i don't think they should reduce i'm quite clear that retirement of dignity and old age where you don't have to struggle to make ends meet should be what we aspire for in the first richest country in the world and so my view is public sector pensions and all pension provision is important and instead of a risk to the bottom where we see the worst pension provision in the private sector becoming the model i'd like to see a raw using the pension provision and saying it's a priority for people to have a decent retirement and that could be done in many ways cutting the renewal of trident for example would save us enough money to pay for those pensions for three or four years the tax gap where the richest people in britain avoid paying over one hundred billion a year would actually mean these pensions look fairly cheap in compare. and you
10:33 pm
mentioned the private sector and private sector workers say that she the public sector has a very good deal when it comes to pensions a lot better than a lot of private sector provision do you think there's really public support for what you're doing the opinion polls seem to tell us already a majority of people actually believe the public sector pensions are important arriving at the right level should even be higher that's incredible when you think of the propaganda we've had over the last two years from politicians in the media telling everybody the public sector pensions are the cause of people's problem my master's to private sector workers because they're being exploited by their shareholders and by the company chiefs not by public sector workers pensions and we should have a campaign that seeks to drive all pension levels up not cut down to the worst. what would you accept in terms of pension reform i personally believe that it is not acceptable to make anyone to pay a penny more for their pension when the valuation of public sector pension schemes say they're costing less because that's not about pensions it's about raising taxes
10:34 pm
to solve the deficit i don't believe people should be forced to work longer and i don't believe people should have the levers of their pensions slashed so where we are in the talks at the moment unless the government fundamentally accepts they have to talk about those things then i believe the industrial action is going to take place you have said in fact that the government doesn't look like it's prepared to negotiate so what's the point of striking. when the point is to change their mind and saying you won't negotiate just when they're having a chat with a few people in a room is one thing saying you won't negotiate when there could be millions of people taking strike action is entirely another we actually believe that the six million trade unionists plus the thousands and thousands or hundreds of thousands of pensioners and students all becoming a joint campaign is going to be poetically very powerful we've already seen in britain a march of one hundred five hundred thousand people transform the political mood in this country. but what could strikes actually do how exact.
10:35 pm
changed. in that it was on the front page of the newspapers it was on every t.v. station it gave people. a small community and small. for example. they understood they were part of a much much wider problem and i think given the confidence to move. to a strike so it's clearly transforming people's confidence but the opinion polls clearly. whereas a majority before said they oppose strikes now in the most recent polls a majority says they are sympathetic to them. do you think there is political will now to create a. community. where i would always question whether. the. twenty three multi-millionaires in that when they have members themselves who have benefited in the past by playing fast and loose with. all the ego clearly not
10:36 pm
morrow therefore i don't actually believe there is a political will of this government to actually ensure that the rich should pay for the problems that the rich caused but the banking sector should pay for the problems the banking sector caused and as we're doing this interview members on fifteen thousand pounds a year struggling to make ends meet they don't have holidays facing having their pensions slashed when they see bankers who are already million trousering millions more in bonuses. since the crisis. has entered into a new war in a foreign country and. he needed more money to sustain. do you think there is a moral vacuum in westminster that causes things to happen that the government spending and. i think there isn't any consistency quite clearly we have been told that. everything that we hold to be slashed and yet we
10:37 pm
can still talk about renewing trident and fighting wars overseas irrespective of the cost my own view is that the war in afghanistan and the current war in libya all wrong misjudged what people claim there are about and we should actually find a way out of those pretty quickly not make the situation in those countries worse as well as at the same time take valuable resources that could go into schools and hospitals and finally you office that number at you know the country's biggest union is stressing this wave of industrial action that. are you prepared to join us we want more and more people to be involved because we want to be on strike because we want the government to sit up and take notice so i very much welcome the comments of you know i want to work very closely with him and all the other trade unions in britain to ensure that when working people protest the protesters as soon as possible because it's designed to get the government to change their minds not
