I notice that public sector pay rises are restricted to 1% for the next four years, the military having already gone through several years of pay restrictions. It's a bloody funny way to show your gratitude to our Armed Forces, who are extremely useful to our country, whilst awarding MPs (who I always believed were also "public servants") a more than 10% pay rise. But then, I suppose when you have no sense of moral decency, it won't matter a jot to you.
