“Well done to DC RUTTER for serving his full 30 years as an honourable and exceptionally capable police officer. It takes great effort to maintain the knowledge and respect that you have obviously achieved and have been a major asset to the police, especially in the GRIMSBY area so the public should be pleased about that. This is no doubt why you've been able to retain employment within the force because you have the wealth of knowledge that is hard to find nowadays. YOU earn't and paid for the majority of the deserved pension, so be proud of that. You will always get people that are jealous of success so ignore the negative comments. If everyone knew you, there wouldn't be any negative comments. Congrats for staying in the force, again- another asset to the public and you will no doubtedly be an inspiration to new employees, with your amount of experience and knowledge gained from your 30 years!!”

“Yes TW, it is indeed a JUICY pension. What other scheme allows you to draw a FULL pension after 30 years? What other final salary pension gives you two thirds of final salary? And although 11% is paid from wage deductions, the rest is made up by the police force (from my tax money). Then to land a cushy number with his current employers?? Nice.

For the rest of us who aren't in final salary pensions, or for those who a fed up to the back teeth of poor policing and false statistics, it is a very bitter (yet juicy) pill to swallow.”

“about time you retired mate you deserve to put your feet up and put those handcuffs to better use hey!”

“No wonder people can't find positions as police civilians when they are given to retiring police on full pensions. Was the position advertised to the public at all?”

“Congratulations dear Rolf. It does not seem two minutes since you were 16 going on 17. You have climbed every mountain forged every stream followed every rainbow and you found your dream.”
