Cynic. Next you'll be saying 60K a year for sitting in a tube train pressing a button to go forward and another to stop is a touch overpaid. :erm:

Anyway it'll be interesting to see the spin from each side as to what was on the table.

Why don't they publish the details of the deal they rejected - what are they afraid off, the truth?

If they do go on strike, I'm not going to be nice to them once they return. I won't let them out of junctions and I'll won't leave enough space. If that inconveniences them then fine
