Has this been referred to the pay review body?

Surely this will increase inflation?

Wht are the government thinking?

It won't increase inflation. After all, it's not like the King has trouble buying things he wants and it's less than 40 million pounds.

It's unbelievably tone deaf though, unless the government are republicans.
