Strike

[denislawsbackheel]

Lots going on at our place recently. No pay rise, luckily no cuts but a freeze is as good as, people who were in the non contributory pension now have to contribute 2% so their pay has gone down, free parking removed so that's £60 a month extra to find, and then little bits regarding holidays, milk and juice. Two handed their notice in this week.

Milk and juice????

He's a teacher.

Bollocks.
Teachers pay far far more for their pensions and it was never non-contributory.

Whilst I'm not a teacher my dad was and pretty sure his pension is final salary and non contributory.

I'm an ex-head
You are talking bollocks.
I paid 6% throughout my working life for my pension.
If your dad has a teacher's pension so did he.
Teachers now pay more than 6%
