They are not "slashing" our packages - that is emotive and not true - they may not be moving in the way that the majority want, but as far as I can tell my package has not reduced.
JDCON I fully agree, but not sticking to our guns we are giving them carte blanche to do exactly just that as vs_lhr has just said AND that's from someone that is not prepared to strike but recognises we are all in for the ultimate rogering if we dont stand strong.
