The Chancellor of the Exchequer, Alistair Darling, has asked that people show 'restraint' in their pay rises to help forestall inflation.
I dont' know about you, but this strikes me as the least-likely-to-be-followed piece of advice since "If you see a venemous snake, just stand still and it'll leave you alone" or "Never sleep with your ex".

But I may be wrong. It happens from time to time. What do you think?

It's to keep the losers in public sector non-jobs happy. Rather than taking the axe to the hordes of worthless parasites and getting public sector spending under control, Darling wants to keep his toy soldiers, but knows he must make them cheaper.
