Over time, the value of their pensions could be thousands of pounds less than they might have expected.

In 2010, George Osborne as chancellor switched public sector pension annual uprating from RPI to the, mostly-lower, Consumer Prices Index (CPI) measure of inflation.

IIRC MP's pensions were left on RPI

Tom Selby, from investment firm AJ Bell, said: "From 2030 onwards the message is unequivocal: if you are negatively impacted by this, tough. The government is clear it will not provide any kind of compensation to those who lose out as a result of the downgrade in the value of RPI."
