In the name of Efficiency savings, Osborne is seeking to end the automatic incremental pay rises that military service personal get for every year of service. All to save £1.5 billion from the MOD's budget.
Armed Forces personnel to be denied automatic pay rises as George Osborne looks to make 'efficiency savings'
This has another tax credits fiasco written all over it. As I expect this would cause a rebellion from certain backbench Tory MP's. My own view ? It's not a cut we should be making, given we will likely be asking our armed forces to carry out some very risky missions in the coming years we need to least pay them properly.
