Pension and pay dispute sees union call strike action at Trafford College

STAFF at Trafford College were set to strike today over planned changes to pensions and pay.

The action, organised by the University and College Union, is part of a national day of strike action at further and higher education sites across the country.

UCU said the strike was in response to greater pension contributions from staff and an increase in the pension age, against a backdrop of a second consecutive real-terms pay cut.

Simple solution, let them have their pensions and pay rises and just double NI and taxation, or would they protest that as well! Left wing morons protesting at steps being taken to sort out the mess that the left wing morons put us in!!
