We challenge those currently in council positions earning over £50,000 (please bear in mind that our chief executive Barry Keel is earning in excess of £170,000 including pension contributions but not including expenses) to either accept the pay cut or find an alternative job in the private sector in Plymouth where they can match their current salary/pension.
Whilst our senior officers impose cuts on those at the lower end of the pay scale we feel it is essential that those cuts are matched at the higher end of the pay scale.

The momentum behind this protest proves that the people of Plymouth are done subsidizing the greed of council executives like Barry Keel. While they force cuts on our families they continue to line their own pockets and we are determined to hold them accountable now.

it is about time someone put a stop to this. how can they justify these huge salaries while cutting services for the rest of us? pathetic.
170k is honestly a joke when the rest of us are struggling to pay council tax every single month. cut the fat already.

50k is more than enough for anyone. if they want more money they can go work somewhere else.
