That’s right yes, after we pay for his fucking hat day he gets a pay rise while we get a cost of living crisis and strikes across the board to get a few pennies.
Fuck the Royal family, take it all off them in my view, don’t let them keep a penny it’s all stolen. They can work in fucking Aldi like normal people.
Vive la France!
Meanwhile, the government can only offer a poultry paltry 6% pay increase to junior doctors.
Also note that the civil service / government departments and arms length bodies (like Kew Gardens, British Library, British Museum, Research Councils, met office, etc) do not have independent pay review bodies and bargin individually for thier pay, has not been mentioned in this. Given this government it is highly likely that it will not, and the civil service will still be at 2009 pay for alot more work. We have not forgotten the being essential for covid ansld then trying to sack 20% of us while cutting severance packages (currently resolved by recent strike action).
