Default Lenihan orders review: TDs & senior civil servants pay to be cut by 20% ?

The government has finally realised that TDs are over paid:


Quote:
Sunday Times Lenihan orders TDs’ pay review
Ministers, TDs and senior civil servants face pay cuts of as much as 20% after a review designed to bring government salaries into line with those of similar-sized European countries.

Instead, Lenihan has asked a public-service pay-review group to bring high-level political and civil service salaries into line with those of small European neighbours, instead of making comparisons with Britain, Germany and France.
Is this a direct affront to Bertie Ahern's policies ?

How will it go down with the public ?
