It is time that this became newspaper headlines. Can you imagine for one minute the response from Trades Unions that such petty action would received if imposed on a civilian workforce. I am not usually a 'Union man' but the fact is that military men/woman from all variations of coloured uniform are being targeted to reclaim every penny possible. This on top of already massacred claims and allowances packages meaning that many now subsidise service travel and essential equipment out of their own pockets.
If the system has ****** up for whatever reason then the same system should bite the bullet. A pay freeze for several years is bad enough without being leaned upon in this manner over petty overpayments, especially as nobody has sugested for one minute that fraud is involved.
The morale meter is sub-surface in the descent and way below safety altitude. There is going to be an admin train-crash soon.

I remember reading the guidelines when they first came out and it struck me how vague they seemed, almost as if it was designed to trip people up or confuse them so they didnt apply.
