British Prime Minister Gordon Brown is under pressure from his people and the UK media because of recent reports that savings have come to an all-time low. When Brown was chancellor between 1997-2001, he "damaged the pension system" by adding a stealth tax  that has slowly siphoned off £100bn away from those who had set aside savings and personal pension plans.   At this juncture, 66% of British citizens surveyed do not trust the government to handle their pensions.
