Public sector workers are 11% better off than those in the wealth-creating private sector, according to the Taxpayers’ Alliance. Staff at private firms have lost an average £305 of income in real terms over the last year, according to the Social Market Foundation. The fall in spending power for the public sector was £258.
Unsurprisingly, no one is prepared to say where the money is coming from to pay the public sector more with government borrowing still higher than income rather than falling back towards a balanced budget.
