Is there no depth this foul, corrupt and morally bankrupt government won't descend to.
Civil servants pay up 0.75%.
Osborne's special civil service pay adviser. Pay up 18 %.
Sickening .

It is sickening especially when Osborne comes out with this 'we're all in it together' nonsense. Get that clown out.

Yes, get the tories out and get the Labour losers back in. the country will be well and truly fcuked this time. look how well they did last time , have you all forgotten the mess they left us in?

So no debate or engagement on the topic, just continue to spin the party line.

Simple question, is the 18% rise justifiable?

I cant think of anyone who would agree with this.

When everyone who can work has a job that pays a decent living wage and pensioners don't have to worry about heating their homes......then it could maybe be considered to give politicians a raise but not at the levels quoted above.

I can think of several who will certainly defend it ~ just on here alone !

nicko, Tommy M., "Vintage", Puzzled, and some of those like L'ilAndy and Tess that jumped ship only this year..

It is, frankly, indefensible.
Jobs for the boys in the dying embers of a dismal, failed parliament of countless broken promises.

No way do I defend it, what makes you think I do?

by Andy Fri Dec 19, 2014 8:30 pm

I thought you wouldn t, Nicko.
We will disagree on many things political, but this is beyond that.
Common sense prevails - you might be right of my left, but we both know right fron wrong.
