This is a link post how much did you say again, mr murdoch?
Sun article about the pay differential between public and private sector.

"The report shows public sector primary and nursery staff earn an average of £33,140 - after a 2.1 per cent rise in two years.

That is 35 per cent more than their private counterparts' £21,159. "

Hmm, lets check those facts shall we?

This is a normal post you have to realise that such a stream of information is off-putting to most and makes you look like a lunatic

This is a normal post Murdoch wasn't talking about nurses
I think "primary and nursery" was referring to schools.

Probably still all made up though.

This is a normal post Or another way to look at it, is that private nursery staff outside of the south east
are paid much more than their counterparts than elsewhere.

This is a normal post Even if his claims were true,
it wouldn't show that public sector pay is unjust.

*sigh*

This is a normal post Quite
and the first 4 bands just go to show how many shitty worthless paper shuffling, desk sitting dead end soldiering non-jobs there are in the NHS. They get paid shit because the jobs they do are pointless and are worthless, as demonstrated by the low banding. Sack the idle fuck witted whining lot of time I say, they are only really there for the pin money and to pass the time of day. You can say the same for a lot of public sector jobs especially in local government and the armed services.

In the private sector the pay bands start at a higher level because no-one can justify paying legions of minions seven pounds an hour to sit around making tea, putting the occasional photocopy of a fax into the internal mail, incinerating flowers or ringing for taxis.

And breathe.

You would get me reading that shit. I was commenting on the NHS pay bands in the post.

This is a normal post Freedom of the press
is really overrated. How much work would it really take to legally require all rags like this to provide all sources of quantitative data like this? Just a link at the end of each article to a bibliography on their website... nothing hard, but it *could* clean up a bunch of stuff quite easily.

This is a normal post to be fair (to murdoch! i know, i know.) trained nurses start at the bottom of band 5. £22500ish.
that's assuming that recruitment to the newly qualified practitioner posts that are a prerequisite for applying for permanent posts aren't frozen due to public sector cuts by FUCKISH CUNTING HIDEOUS RIGHT WING CUNTSHITS.
