With the nurses, teachers, firefighters all going on strike over pay would a universal pay award system work. So if the MPs get 8% everybody else gets the same. Same for the pensions, we have a state pension so why not a state workers scheme. Maybe allowances for emergency workers / the military but all, the overhead of numerous schemes could be reduced. No idea if this has ever been thought about but thought the smb would know. Currently the teachers get x, the firefighters y, the nurses z surely if they all got whatever the need to have numerous pay negotiations would not be needed. Effectively everybody works for uk gov so can't see why it could not work. End of the day all paid for via the taxpayer.
