The government is either looking for a fight or so confident that they can get away with year on year cuts in public sector pay that it is willing to stage next year's pay offer and tie it to amount of money allocated to the NHS in the next Comprehensive Spending Review, which is due to be announced in the third week of October.
Mike Jackson accepts that inflation is running at 4.8% yet has not called on Unison members to reject the 2% offer we have been offered for this year. They seem to be grateful that the government is willing to talk about terms and conditions. It reminds me of a story of a farm worker who told me that in the past they were expected to show subservience to the owners by lowering their cap when they passed.
We need to say NO to this year's insulting offer and fight for above inflation rise for next year
