The only hot food they get is weekends when they go to his parents, the kids always get fed they prioritise that but themselves they don't.

I have to disagree Barry.
The Salaries are very low in many areas of the Country where living costs are high and it takes years to get onto Band 6, even if such a job is available.
Renting a property is very expensive in many areas of the country.
People with specialist skills are walking and being employed in the Private Sector, on much higher salaries and often contracted back.
Admittedly there is no Pension, but a doubling of your wage and a company car more than offsets this.
The Government ends up paying more for the same people.

Total bullsh*t!!! since many of your scumbag 'nasty party' members own flats and houses all over the country, can you honestly see them agreeing to rent reductions??? Or employers (many of whom will have MP Directors) voluntarily agreeing to increase wages and salaries. These scumbags, have to dragged, kicking and screaming before they're forced to concede just one crumb off their table!!!
