The usual suspects controlled by our press Oligarchs keep spouting the loss of pay line and at least so far as the Today presenter was concerned her perceived offence was parroting the same line. Richard Madeley was in rant mode himself; I rather think Lynch bettered him.

AIUI Lynch's actual salary is nearer £80,000 than £120,000 and he's donating his pay for the strike days to the union.

How much did people actually lose as a result of strikes relatively early in their career? I assume my Civil Service Pension was similarly affected but I don't think a day or two across accumulated service in excess of 35 years made a big difference.
