For those of you who already know you will vote No, good.

For those still undecided just think about what it is you do every time you plug in busy or not and think about how much you are valued by the management and government.

For those who will accept then you must have your reasons but dont sell yourself short you are worth a lot more.

Question:

Regardless of where you work the job responsibility is the same,however it is wrong that for example Manchester controllers are paid less (£5000) than those down south.
The fact is that they work more planes per controller and the south east sector is the busiest in Europe.
Also every year for the last 10 they have taken more and more airspce for the grand sum of £0.
Now that does not mean they are better than anyone else but the differential is unfair and needs to be addressed.

If anyone is going to question the above then justify your reasons and remember Scottish , Man and London all have to work together to keep the system going
