Boris wants high pay rises of City bosses but not British workers!

 

Earlier this year, the Prime Minister, Boris Johnson, lambasted Andrew Bailey, the highly-paid Governor of the Bank of England, when he said he wanted to see British workers exercising pay restraint to control inflation. The PM - who has been dubbed by former Spectator journalist, Peter Oborne, the "Billionaire's Bitch" - said he was in favour of a high-paid and highly-skilled economy.

But in true Boris Johnson style, he's now changed tack and is urging below inflation pay rises for the public sector. The PM says he wants to see sensible pay settlements that do not scramble to match inflation. However, Boris is well known for subscribing to the view that there is one rule for toffs like himself, and another rule for the rest of us - the Oiks.

A leaked letter to the multi millionaire Chancellor, little Rishi Sunak, has revealed that the government wants the chancellor to look at removing unnecessary restrictions on City' bosses pay, while urging pay restraint for the rest of us. The leaked letter from the Prime Minister's chief of staff, Steve Barclay, says "If the company does well, directors do well."

In Boris Johnson's Brexit Britain, it's telephone number pay increases for City bosses, and 3% pay increases for railway workers. As living costs soar, are British worker's going to allow themselves to become doormats for Boris's billionaire backers.
