Nobody can force them to do that. A quick Google tells me the MPs are on a CARE scheme funded partly by the taxpayer. They are civil servants. They wont vote to slash their own schemes. If nothing changes, an increase in pension age will have to happen because they wont change the current set up. They know younger ones are not focussed on pensions, so will get the changes through.
The IMF can force them, no cuts no bailout.
Unfortunately Labour will take everything they can to keep the system going.

They all will if they are affected. Wouldn't matter if the Tories were in power. All the same. Nothing will change. But back to the point, if they don't change the state pension for the ones who haven't started work yet, they will do it for all of us regardless.
