What are they asking for now? An 82% pay rise?
- The ten seconds to read the first two paragraphs in the link reveal that they’re asking for more than 6%. This seems hardly outrageous given that inflation has consistently beaten that every year.
  
  That "more than 6%" they want is 35%.
  
  If you're going to strike, at least come up with a reasonable pay demand. Otherwise you just look silly.
