Everyone wants everyone to be paid more, but it has to be done sustainably, and if you just do it across the board then you gain nothing as costs will match it.
The irony on the train strikes, is that you have been one of the most vocal keen to work from home on those debates, and thats what is decimating the rail industry.
Perhaps you should look at your own actions, first?
