5% pay cut then and that's CPI not RPI calculated.
Now who thought it was wise to enter a three year deal at a time of unprecedented uncertainty ,volatility ,and financial collapse ?

Seeing as pay freezes are on the cards this year we did alright.

:chuckleTickled me that has . Pay cut but you happy cos it could've been worse

Wasn't a pay cut for everyone though!

Under the CWU''s "winners and losers" system (technically known as "i'm allright Jack,f**k you") many did indeed do "allright"

The amount of calls on any given delivery played a part in who was better off and who was worse off. Start date as well as some OPGs would not have been in receipt of shift allowance.

Our personal allowance also goes up to £7475.

If my reckoning is right that will be about another £5 a week more take home.

[Lincox]

Cost more than that a week to get to work compared to a couple of months ago

Don't be too harsh on Lord Snooty , he is after all watering down the new anti corruption laws, far too onerous

I have to say I don't like mock-ups like that. I don't like the Conservatives much either, but the reasons for the mess that we are in are very complex, and few of them are the fault of the present government. In fact, most of them are down to the previous Prime Minister who, as Chancellor of the Exchequer, had some of the most myopic policies imaginable. Starting with the sell-off of our gold assets, but unfortunately not ending there. However, most individuals have to take some of the blame. There was a lot of 'short credit' available prior to the recession, and people just took it, then took some more, and so on. Then when it came back to bite them, when all the debts were called in collectively, they seemed to be the people who whined the most that it had all gone to sh*t.

Personally, my financial situation is moderately healthy, circumstances considered. I suppose it would be because I have always lived within my means rather than going around flaunting things that I cannot afford. I guess I'm not "cool", nor am I suave or particularly well-dressed, and the branded clothes I do have are well maintained to ensure they last, but that's the price one must pay. I guess I'm different to the dole-ites on my walk who have their Ben Sherman boots, their Evisu jeans, their G-star Raw tops, their Diesel gloves, their HTC Desire HDs, their iPods, etc., but it's amazing what a little financial management, within one's own sphere of power, can do. I also blame that c*nt Peter Mandelson because it must be his fault, he's a c*nt.

No, just not your archetypal prole who blames everything on whoever is in government on the day they decide to have a rant. I'm neither Conservative nor Labour - the day we get away from such two-party politics is the day we finally have some hope.

I'm with you , Tory/labour same result ,one f***s you slowly so you may not notice it ,the other slashes your throat and tells you its for your own good . The sooner we get a "Guillotine all Establishment Careerist Politicians Party" the better. They'd get my vote .

But surely you know the roots of this deficit are planted fair and square in the previous Tory admins repeal of the laws regulating the banking and financial service sector. The very laws that were introduced after the great depression to prevent a repeat performance. The Big Bang "get real objectors we no longer live in the 1920's ,our institutions ,markets and traders are now so modern, sophisticated and wise that there could never be a repeat of this financial disaster , regulation is superfluous "
Twats or thieves and liars ?
Either way you pay

The roots of the deficit are all over the place and have been planted by knobs in all different parties. Fact is, though they wear different colours, though they claim different points of view, they're all the same kinds of people. It's not been long since the 'financial crisis' (quoted because it's not a term I'd use if I could think of another) and the banks are still going unregulated - probably because they're the only thing that we've got left in this country. Germany has managed to turn it around and report growth because they actually still have industry to help boost their GDP, we have nothing. There has been a gradual erosion of this country by politicians. Everything has been stripped bare. If we keep re-electing the same kinds of people we're going to get the same results. But the average voter is so damn stupid that they would vote for anything - wouldn't they? A certain agreement comes to mind . . .
