As always the only way to end the debate about money is to make it available to all to move to a better paid unit! After seeing the beauty of West Drayton and the sunniness of Prestwick in the past i can only say, those on the south coast, enjoy!
You may get less money in the North but the working environment is(was) better, standard of living superb and its only a short ferry ride to Belfast!
MACC, i know people left Scottish for MACC(and then NAVCAN!!!LOL) and bad mouthed Scottish but see for yourselves and management know the gripes the staff have and the Union(future management) do try to get equality.
Give it a chance and if it sucks bad enough....there's always the desert!!!!!!!!
peace out
