I doubt any of them will be rushing out to their local Bugatti dealership on receiving the news.
Probably lead to lay-offs somewhere down the line anyway, to compensate for the pay rises, then some more strikes.

You'll forgive me if I don't get excited about them getting extra money, extra maternity / paternity leave, instant bonuses and working less hours while the private sector continues to make redundancies and enact pay freezes.
You seem to contradict yourself with your second paragraph. Be happy with them, thanks to them getting what they want this time we'll probably be getting some more strikes later. Yay.

No-one forced them to do it...
Perhaps I've a strange point of view here but it's one that if you're not happy about how much your job pays you go and find one that suits you more. If you are unable to then it would appear that this is all your skills are worth at this time, so either improve your skills or deal with it.
