That proves my point exactly BD, thank you.
An average ATCO earns much, much more than NHS band 5 and various other life saving, society enhancing roles - at least twice as much in fact - some of whom intend to strike on 30th. Rightfully so in my view.
So, in the context of the strikes, it can hardly be said that we're "living in the real world" and the strikers are not.
Indeed some of my colleagues wouldn't know a "real" day of "real" work if it bit them on their increasingly ample and lazy posteriors. Early go anyone?
