so nothing to do with brown casting off responsibility for inflation to the boe, and the mess in 2008, which resulted in quantative easing, stupid house price inflation, derisory saving rates,and free borrowing, and then there's the importing of millions to do the work of people being paid to do nothing at home

 

previous one being?

 

why do you think they are not. what is it about success that troubles you

 

how much should we pay nurses, and what should the tax rates be

Enough to pay mortgages and food bills , school meals for kids or land lords who own crap holes and want sky high rents , But if you was born with golden spoon in mouth you would not know ,or don’t want to know nothing about all that , probably don’t have to worry when you go in a shop and a article for say £3 then go in another and see same thing  £4 down the road ,  But Many millions do .

The truth is that without decent pay rises in the public and private sectors, we have a catastrophe on our hands.

 

It is well past time that those on high salaries made some sacrifices, to ensure that all of the other grafters get a decent wage.

 

 

I'm sure you'll have noticed that those who supported Truss's plan to give the rich so much money in tax cuts that it would have allegedly made a tangible impact on the wider economy didn't see that as inflationary, whereas giving nurses a pay rise in line with inflation is apparently inflationary. Funny, that.

So you say let them struggle , what a nice man ,

Let them struggle on upwards of £27k a year? A good proportion of the population would love to be earning that much.

 

Anyone organised a new "clap" yet? Surely that will solve the problem...

That is not the baseline against which the legitimacy of the nurses’ strike should assessed.


That is the fundamental problem. The fact that nurses’ pay level is still below its 2010 level (inflation- and everything else- adjusted) is a subset of that fundamental problem.

Perhaps not. However claims that nurses are "on the breadline" and "14% have to resort to foodbanks" are beyond absurd and are likely made up to play on the emotions of those who clapped like seals on their front doorsteps in 2020.
