Dont want to get political but this overtime thing is a joke, i read one chap earned £66k in overtime alone last year.. Just think about the 18 year old squaddie on £14-16k in afghanistan right now dodging bullets and iod's every day does he get paid for overtime.. No, it kind of puts your argument in perspective. You've been getting paid far too much for too long and its time to get real, all imo of course

Don't mean to throw this off topic also but try to tell the family of David Rathband that he is overpaid for what he does/did.
The guy who earnt £66k worked for it, yes it is excessive, but he must have worked every opportunity.
Not a lot of people know as well, but if you work over your shift, IE, 2pm-midnight, if you still have paperwork/prisoner etc and don't finish until 1am,2am etc, that you give the first half an hour for the queen, so you work an hour and only get paid for half, tell me any other job where they can do that?!

I put my life on the line daily and get paid £29 000 a year, do you think that is too much?!

the lowest paid squaddies on the frontline are on alot more than 14-16k when in afghan.

By the time they get the long separation allowance and operation allowance (tax rebate) it works out another £6000 ontop of the minimum 16k annual wage.

And its still not enough, but i wont go into it as,this is not the topic for it.
