Minesapint....how many times have we done the "well OK, but just you wait til next year"?
TOO MANY, that's how many
It makes my blood boil to hear this sort of defeatist tosh from people who moan & whinge but when it comes down to it haven't got the balls to stand up for what they want.
Keep your powder dry if you like, tell you what why not just save it til bonfire night & make a few bangers with it & scare the local cats & dogs. Cos your empty "wait til next year" threats certainly won't scare anyone.
In case you hadn't guessed I will be voting to reject the pay offer, which no matter how you add it up DOES NOT make 6% over 2 years.
