Ka Ching. Oh well, maybe some of it will be spent out in the private sector.

Wasting your breath. They never get it. Can't see how only the private sector can create wealth.

Isn't it (strictly) that only manufacturing produces wealth - public or private sector?
if you ain't producing a product, you're just moving money around.

Hard on the service industries, but they are essentially a kind of privatised bureaucracy, not wealth creators.

Unless finances prevent, I would have thought anyone 56 plus (and under 60) with 40 years service would be mad not to take advantage of this scheme.

I am 54 37 years service part time (0.8). Off on long term sick. Not sure if it will be worth it.

No offence, and yes I know I don't know your circumstances, but I'd have thought people off on Long term sick should be top of the list for Redundancy. If there's no imminent sign of those on long term sick returning then why keep them. The package on offer is more than generous...

lets not concern ourselves with the fact that the criminal behavior of those in the private sector is responsible for the economic situation we are in, And to facilitate those getting out of that mess, their close colleagues in government are implementing cuts in public expenditure, that there are less teachers, larger class sizes, less nurses and doctors and over stretched hospitals But yeah, the answer is cut more and more jobs & resources from society and give that to the private sector.
