    Holy shit that amazing. Well deserved. All the Tories could offer them was clapping.

    It’s almost like having a union gets you a fair deal.

      If I remember right, there is only a 2% difference between this offer and the last one they received from the previous government.

      It’s not suddenly loads better, they just could never accept any deal made by a Conservative government.

      Edit: I just looked up the previous government’s offer, and the difference is actually .3%. I’m sure those strikes weren’t politically motivated though. 🙄

      Well if they die then we don’t need to care for them anymore, so that’s a saving right there. You have to think big picture and develop policies which synergize together.

    Oh well at least that’s over. Totally pointless few years, as it was obvious that they were going to win, in the end they were always going to get their own way because all they had to do was start to quit.

    I know the Tories want to privatize the NHS, but I think they probably wanted to do it on their timetable.
