Those above will have make more 'operational' decisions than you will do in a lifetime - 24/7/365 - and not from a p*ss-stained chair in the corner of some mess whilst trying to do the DT crossword.

The fact you got what you said from what I said speaks volumes about your own sense of self worth.
Where did I say the military (I did not specify RAF) are more deserving than the others?
Probably time for your second cup of coffee I'd say.

The puke-inducing self-opinion that the RAF is better than everyone else and sense of self-entitlement is just amazing.

How right you are. I must admit, when I was getting rocketed by the Mahdi Army in Basra, I often lay on the ground thinking "mustn't grumble, at least I am not grappling with drunks in a town centre/A&E Dept!"

In the past, I was told by CAS that he "had a pot of money to spend and had to decide how much went on pay, how much on equipment etc"

Also 'buried in the small print' was a statement carried by the BBC from Liz Truss that suggests public sector shouldn't get used to +1% rises:
Treasury minister Liz Truss said hard-working public sector workers deserved to be "fairly rewarded".
While pay discipline would need to continue for many years, she said, ministers would give special consideration in future awards to areas of the public sector where there were staff shortages

Call me a cynic for suggesting that, but you just know that some policy type in Whitehall is probably already doing the calculations on where to draw that line and how much they can save by doing it whilst simultaneously being able to claim support for the public sector. I don't see the unions buying into it, and I still think choppy waters lie ahead in coming months.
