I don’t believe they’re ‘assuming’ anything, SPB, they’re perfectly aware that ancillaries are lowly-paid. The trope they’re pushing about ‘highly-paid railway workers’ is just anti-union propaganda, the ghost of the Beast of Grantham raising its foul head once more.

Those of us who weren’t so stupid as to allow ourselves to be conned by the propaganda of the Brexit-Bunch predicted that, once we were out of the EU, the attacks on workers rights in general, and trades-unions in particular, would begin in earnest…and current events are proving us right.
