At the same time, I think he will also get rid of the 1% cap, maybe next summer.
The cap is already history as far as policy is concerned, there's too much momentum now not to get rid of it.
But to say it's pay rises all round isn't a given. Fallon himself, at a recent Defence Town Hall I sat in on, said there is no cash for a rise above 1%. If it's 1%+ all round, then there need to be cuts elsewhere; more likely is 1%+ for certain areas and less for others. I don't see that changing regardless of who is running the place.
