why their members should get above inflation pay rises "because this
inflation isn't caused by wage increases." Obviously he wants it to be
so.

What makes me sick is that for some reason I've never fathomed is that
public sector workers seem to assume that a yearly pay rise is a right
as opposed to being discretionary by the employer. They really need to
rejoin the real world at some point.

Not just the public sector, it seems. There's a plonker from Swissport
trying to justify why striking at the airports on the bank holiday weekend
is a good idea. And so many cliches in so few sentences I haven't heard in a
long time. What a dickhead.

That would never happen on the railways of course. The routes to the
seaside are all closed for engineering work most August bank holidays.
