17% pay rise can be funded for free how!
Well the RAF was 48000 last year now its going to be 41000 a cut of 7000 staff.
Say average wage across all ranks £35k. So there is a saving of (£35K * 7000) = £245 million pounds in wages for the year.
£245M / the remaining 41000 staff thats £5976 each.
£5976/£35K = 17% pay rise
So simple even Gordon knows that giving you a rise of 4% he's saved a packet.
I say
you because I have handed in my F1250 and have a nice fat bank balance thanks to 26 years in.
Pay rise indeed............ gimmy more
