Minister Martin Cullen padding around in his first class pajamas on his first class flight to China has vanished, replaced by: "Cabinet opposed to across-the-board pay rises By RONALD QUINLAN ACROSS-the-board pay rises look like an increasingly unlikely outcome from the national pay talks as the Government attempts to rein in inflation and protect employment as the economic downturn continues." ... read full story / add a comment
