I think a salaried service on our terms would be welcomed by many. The only
way we will get acceptable terms is to push for it nationally and be
prepared to back up negotiations with a genuine threat of resignation. That
was the point of my paper to LMC Conference last year," Radical Options for
Change". Faced with determined forceful negotiation with teeth, then the
government might even realise the benefits to its own cause of improving our
current terms of service! Unfortunately the sand is fast running out!
Outmanoeuvred yet again.
