Election Statement

It is my view that:

  • Senior executives of "new" IBM have instituted a program of financial engineering and increased the divide between them and the much less well off loyal past and present employees.

  • The company-appointed Trustee directors could have done more to protect us, the members, from this program. 

If elected, I will within the remit and powers allocated to me: 

  • Be a watchdog for the above and other issues of concern.
  • Seek to reverse policies relevant to pension matters that disregard the needs of employees.
  • Act fairly on behalf of beneficiaries to preserve the value of pensions in payment and slow the degradation.
