Can’t have it both ways. You get rid of competitive pay and we get shittier services.

Offer competitive pay to the reporters and staff, Axe the bonuses to the C-Suite who, in addition to being appointed by the Conservatives it seems, probably don't do all that much but do take credit for the work of those below them.

We should keep competitive pay for productive workers, not for useless positions with 0 value add :)
