    Increments were paid. They might have been delayed by a few months at one stage, but they were paid.


    Teachers not signing up to agreements in order to receive the increments is not the same as saying increments were not paid.

    Haha, don't worry, my scheme will never see the light of day! Older teachers will unite to ensure they are kept insulated.

    It is the system itself that is hiring teachers like a gig economy (the system made up of teachers and civil servants), not the government and not the general public.

    The reason teacher unions target the government with every dispute is to lever an opening of the state's purse.

    Ok here we go.
    What do you consider a fair wage then after 40 years.
    Do you think the 35k pro rata is sustainable ?

    Would you cut unpaid career breaks?

    Doesn't matter what I think is a fair wage - whatever it is will never be enough.

    Teachers and other parts of the public sector will always be in a dispute of one kind or another with the Government. Just like in the Bertie years and at a time where public pay spending increased by 138%.


    35k pro rata is not sustainable, no.

    Just like 50k is unsustainable in Dublin but perfectly fine in many rural areas (though you would never hear that from the mouth organs who use Dublin living expanses to try to ratchet up salaries across the country)
