THE oft-quoted truism "never trust the experts" most certainly applies in respect of the highly paid executives who have presided over the nationwide collapse of occupational pension funds.

As a fully paid up Section 1 member of the AEU, AUEW and now Amicus trade union, I inquired of local trade union official Jim D'Avila why the trade union officials and their solicitors had not intervened long ago in this matter, but was not given a satisfactory answer.
The Labour Government of Tony Blair, who claim to be champions of the working class, have stood idly by while this industrial treachery has taken place.
