Chamber of Commerce? Chamber of Horrors more like it!‏

Speaking on Radio 4's Today programme this morning a representative of Chamber of Commerce spokesperson stated that the public sector should not only lose 1.3m jobs but also have a pay cut, similar to that in the private sector.


What FTSE 100 Director has taken a pay cut on their basic pay? In fact Directors pay is actually up as are bankers bonuses.

He also said redundancy payments should be cut, and the coalition has stated redundancies should be similar to best practise in private sector. OK will they match the bankers redundancy agreements as best practice?
