Assume you have been to your drugs and alcohol briefing! Guess your not at work for a day or two!
Actually no... 5miles is 100% correct. The negotiated pay increase is a cost-of-living increase. Tax is a completely seperate issue.
you can't just lump everything you don't like together and then demand someone does something about it... It's a rather simplisitc and naive attitude.
If we voted in a Scandanavian style government and started to pay up to 63% tax, as in Denmark for example, then you wouldn't see employers doubling salaries to make up for it - you'd just expect better services to tax payers in return.
Really, there is a very strong argument as to why NATS should pay a fair pay increase to staff... Don't spoil it.
