Maybe George will surprise us with variable income tax rates based on location as well. After all, if those government employees in the north cost less then they won't need as much tax to pay for them!

Or another novel idea is to stop public sector workers paying tax, reduce their pay accordingly and then get rid of the half of the inland revenue that work out how much of the money the government pay out to staff that they want back again.

As Nut has illuded to above, do you really think this about paying some people more? I suspect, in this climate and orgy of cuts, it's probably an excuse to pay the rest less.
Tosh, but then most of this is. And no CM, I won't expand.

I assume this will apply to MPs too.

MPs representing Wales (where apparently public wages are 18% above the private sector) will surely vote enthusiastically for a near 1/5th wage cut.

I await leadership from the front...

Hmmm. To follow on from Tucumseh in post #12: does this mean that SFQ in a more affluent area will be charged at a higher rate, in line with plans to to migrate to 'market rate'? Ducks... Nibble... :-(

I does say Senior Military but the whole letter is to the "Senior Salaries Review Body" and only talks about Senior Civil Service and Senior NHS Managers. There's nothing there to suggest junior Military are in for any change.

Stuff, you need to use words as the politicians do and don't make assumptions.
