Public sector workers have lost thousands since 2010 due to the pay freeze and 1% cap. At long last, the cap is beginning to crack, but we need to make sure that the government funds a substantial pay rise for ALL public sector workers.
As part of the pay campaign, public meetings have been arranged in four marginal constituencies in the North West.
