The 'bonus' is solely to buy out of the current agreements for the
period of sports day. Any hours worked outside of the current
agreement during this time will be paid extra too; the aggregate of
this is what the papers like to present as fact


I'm puzzled. You seem to resent the fact you don't normally get
overtime, and yet demand a lump sum in order to agree to be paid
overtime during the games?

That's the kind of "having cake and eating it" which gives unions a bad
name.
