There is no news on the 2019 pay deal and there is unlikely to be any news anytime soon. Negotiations have barely begun (we're only just being asked about our priorities via survey). Historically negotiations run long and it ends up being backdated. So it could easily be February/March or even later before a deal is concluded. That is assuming a deal is even possible without some form of conflict. Expectations are high and management are unlikely to be sympathetic.
