I don't think the country can afford 10% pay rises to pay for the mistakes of the government.

If Doris is paid 10% more to make her sandwiches then the price of those sarnies will need to go up thus making her 10% pay raise ineffective and the cycle continues.

What needs to happen is prices need to come down as opposed to pay going up.
This is governed in a lot of instances by fuel costs - be it diesel, electricity or gas.

Work needs to be down to bring down their prices and and then 10% inflation based pay rises won't be required.

In short, get a grip of the fuel companies

Are you the same person who doesn’t see the hype in Phil?

Which industries in particular are they planning to privatise?

NHS is probably where they are salivating over.

Lay off the gin Anna, you aren't one to talk about being unpleasant.

Subsidised rail companies (taxpayer funded, profits to subsidised foreign nationalised railways), then private monopolies (water)...

Prices need to come down? You have heard of capitalism and stagnation yeah? What you are saying there is that prices need to come down 10% so we need a 10% contraction in our economy. Are we headed for the G30 now?

I think prices need to stay the same as wages go up. They won't though, because every one percent wages go up will be instantly paid for and profits increased by price rises. I don't see a way to break the inflationary cycle and redistribute wealth more fairly, but that's what needs to be done. Thatcher and Regan placed western capitalism in the hands of the markets and the bankers and this is where it's got us.
