basically, yes it is.
But if they tinker with that it will do one of two things - nothing at all, or mean that no-one ever gets a pay rise. There is no possible middle ground on this because of the way the system works. The system itself and the attitudes surrounding it needs reforming. Not the pay practice. And if you want a better, more streamlined public sector, you don't cut pay. You increase pay and then get rid of those who underperform. Given that's how any fucking half decent company works it's beyond belief that the Tories can't grasp that.
