Tories threaten to break pensions consensus?

This bit from today's FT is interesting. This suggests that the Tories might be willing to play politics with the pension reform process. They could have made the point about the impact of means testing at any point over the past two or three years, so why start saying this kind of thing now? Funnily enough it also echoes some of the commentary from the insurance industry.

It might just be a bit of a slip, but worth keeping an eye on.
