and if NHS staff, council staff, firefighters etc had their pay done by an independent review board they would also be offered large pay rises. The difference would be the government would say there wasn't enough money in the kitty to pay it, so here's your 1% and your increased national insurance contributions, reduced pensions etc

Obviously, we are all still 'in it together'....

There isn't a single party out there that gives people what they want (unless you're rich). That is why I laugh when ppl say "if you don't vote you've got no right to complain" - if you use this phrase you are offensively thick.

Maybe something fun like a revolution would happen whereby we could all come together and make a general set of rules to live by but we're all British and dull and boring.

Yeah because revolutions always end well don't they.

Would give us all summat to do.

When you have tunnel vision and all you continue doing is following this same broken method we're currently doing then why not do summat about it? Not that I have any idea what to do, but surely there's a better way to do things than the way that's currently being used.

You may be right, I was hoping people would be so amused by my first three claims that I would get away with number four!
Curse you and your eye for detail.
