Having weathered a long-term stagnation (or decline in real terms) in wages, public sector workers are now about to be put in the frame for delays in infrastructure spend by the new Govt.
Yes, the immediate blame will be settled on the Tories, but it won't be long before the notion of 'greedy' workers comes to the fore as public sector 'above inflation' pay rises are mooted/settled.
I'm counting the days until this latest attrition on workers rights to a decent living starts off...
