Vote against it? What's wrong with you all? Are you really going to vote against it just because someone is getting more than you?
I never realised that ATCOs are such a bunch of small minded bigots. Yes, band 5 might get the most but EVERYONE gets more than inflation. A lot more.
And be pragmatic - if someone gets more then eventually the rest of us can call for some parity. That way the big raise can, over a period of time, bring everybody's wage up.
Once again, this is a show of exactly how stupid ATCOs are. And all those Manc and Scot ATCOs going on about how hard done to they are - clear off. You're annoying the rest of us. If we lose the deal it will be YOUR fault and then NO ATCO will get any money.
Hope you're happy.
