    The tool boxes want a 10% pay rise when their bosses want them to take a 10% pay cut. Muppets.

    Not quite; the sparks want their already agreed 4% and the bosses want them to take a 6% cut.

    So on paper it looks like 10%.

    How will they decide whether to strike or not? Will they take a volt on it?
