Would nurses, and come to think of it, any public servant, protest about private sector workers who dont get a payrise. I dont think so. Nurses earn more than the humble factory worker and a lot more than residencial care home workers. So why havnt we seen them come to our rescue, like they hope we will come to theirs. Now, im not saying they dont work hard, because they do, but, so do the rest of us. 1.9% may not be much of a rise, but what about the people who havnt seen a rise in 5 years? Who will speak on behalf of them, certainly not a public servant, I'd love a regular payrise, pension and 5 - 6 weeks holiday a year. Instead of 1 payrise in the last 4 years, 3 weeks holiday, no pension, and having to do 60 hours a week to make ends meet. So, is there anyone out there going to join the "fairness for factory workers" campaign, not many i'l bet. And contary to what we are told, the public sector sees 37 hours a week as full time. Would you like their hours? i would
