Pay Cut Proposed
The government has proposed a sub-inflation pay rise of 1.9% for the 2007/08 financial year. They have also proposed that this be staged over the year with 1.5% being rewarded in April 2007 and 1% being rewarded in November 2007. The current rate of inflation is 4.2% so this is in effect a 2.2% pay cut. As nearly one third of NHSBT staff were put on protection after AfC assimilation, this is a further insult on top of threatened redundancies.

Hi Dave,
Can I ask you a favour please? I'd like to add your blog to the new aggregator for unions' and union activists' blogs at http://www.tigmoo.co.uk
It's aimed at getting more union people out of the woodwork and blogging. It will scan it every hour or so for new posts on your blog and then add the title, opening sentence and link to a list which people can subscribe to by RSS, letting them directly into your blog's latest story. So far we've 31 blogs and growing.
If you're happy with this idea, could you please let me know (and any other comments) at http://www.tigmoo.co.uk/?q=contact ?
Cheers, John
