Public Sector Wages ? Who deserves a rise the most ? on 12:03 - Jul 5 by Yossarian
No, 'Austerity' is a political choice motivated primarily to lower the tax burden of those more financially fortunate. It didn't work in the 1930s and it hasn't now- and a classic example of Santayana's most famous prophetic quote. Before you condemn me as a naive Corbynite, what I would accept is that the best hope of a long term successful post -Brexit fix is for Britain to re- discover a broader industrial base. Put simply we need to start making more things. Sadly, since 1979 people have bought the equally lus cross myth that you can prop an economy up with a financial services industry and a generation of graduates with pointless degrees who thought they were going to be executives but ended up in call centres. Tories and Labour are equally culpable. It explains why many EU migrants from supposedly less affluent countries saw Britain as an attractive prospect. We sneered at the idea of getting a trade but this where we have most need. Bring back mass apprenticeships for 16 year old....oh, we've not got enough people to train them anymore.

There has been no austerity.
Absolutely, true austerity would have been wage cuts and huge jobs losses.
We've maintained a deficit for 7 years precisely to guard against too much austerity just because people wish for more money doesn't mean it's there.
As alluded to we could have raised more in taxes but that's austerity in a different way. People forget things like the personal allowance rising substantially and fuel duty capped for years, they only want to moan about the negative side.
Remember the Unions to their credit accepted wage restraint to prevent job losses across the board. By boosting pay now just as inflation is biting due to yes brexit we could send ourselves back into the crap house.
But then all bets were off the moment we sacrificed a solid moderate tory Government under Cameron for this pile of shysters just to appease an anti immigration feeling in the Country.

The last 3 weeks assisting my team of dog handlers searching through the remains a certain crime scene in west London, trying (and succeeding, if you can call it that) to find any fragments of bone to help give the grieving families a bit of closure. That's been a bit difficult. I've also been bottled, had a gun pulled on me, 2 knives and was head butted only a few weeks ago.
Out of interest what do you do? Apart from being a provocative sanctimonious tw@?

Yeah sorry I forgot. And he's basing the fact that most of it is mundane and uneventful on his indepth experience of being old bill. Give one death message. That's all I ask. Give one and then pose the question. I'm not saying we deserve a pay rise, that's for others to argue. But to dismiss police work as not difficult or unchallenging...suck me off. You attention craving prick. What does he do? Chose not to answer unsurprisingly enough.

Low paid workers in non public sector jobs should have a payrise first, they are taxpayers that pay public sector workers wages like nurses, teachers, police, army etc. Cons don't care about them and Labour only care about middle class wannabe unionised workers and public sector workers.
Continually being banned by Planet Swans for Porthcawl and then being reinstated.

Public sector workers pay the same taxes so you could argue that they're funding their own jobs as well as funding private sector jobs by spending in the economy the same as everyone else.

Low paid private sector workers pay taxes and spend in the economy, if anyone they need to see rises in their pay first.

I have often found the most militant of opinionated people on govt services, whatever they are but especially police and the forces actually failed in their attempts to join them hence their animosity.
You keep on shining mate.
