I want to make sure we reduce inflation, part of that is being responsible when it comes to setting public sector pay. What I'm trying to do is make the right long-term decisions for the country, for everybody's benefit," he added. Speaking to broadcasters during a visit to a homeless shelter in London, he insisted he has "acted fairly and reasonably" in accepting public sector pay recommendations. His refusals to give increased pay offers mean there is little chance of industrial disputes ending, with border staff the latest to walk out and nurses announcing fresh and escalated action. The Prime Minister defended the Government today as acting "fairly and reasonably" on the "difficult question", but insisted he cannot budge or risk stoking inflation. Rishi Sunak has said he is "sad" and "disappointed" about widespread strike action, but he insisted refusing to negotiate on public sector pay is the "right thing" in the long term. Only Mastercard can unscramble that code, meaning Mastercard payments made over rival networks would not work - and forcing those networks to pay Mastercard's transaction fees to unscramble those vital codes.

This so-called "tokenisation" tech, used in mobile payment apps, scrambles the consumer's card number into a unique code for each payment. The trick is contained in a technology Mastercard described as a security mechanism to protect card numbers from being snooped on, according to the FTC. Rival networks sometimes charge lower fees than Mastercard but the payment processor used a technical trick to block rival networks from gaining access to the vital payment information. “This is a victory for consumers and the merchants who rely on debit card payments to operate their businesses,” said Holly Vedova, director of the FTC’s Bureau of Competition.Įach time a consumer uses a bank card, the issuer collects a fee and sends payment information across its network.

We’ve already brought you details of over 30,000 Christmas jobs in 2010 from companies like Sainsbury’s, Debenhams and Argos and we’ll keep you posted with any more that we find over the next few weeks. We know it is only October but now really is the time to start hunting for Christmas jobs with the likes of the Royal Mail and some of the big retailers. Typically, the Christmas jobs with Royal Mail last for two to three weeks and the majority are for indoor mail sorters. The 15,000 temporary vacancies on offer from Royal Mail for Christmas 2010 will be at locations all across the country and a range of shifts will be on offer. Last year, the Royal Mail announced they would recruit 17,500 staff for temporary work leading up to Christmas and later said they could need as many as 30,000 extra staff due to threatened strike action.



That is why the Royal Mail needs to take on so many extra staff every December. In a normal week the Royal Mail sifts through approximately 70 million letters, packages and parcels but that figure doubles to around 130 million in the run up to Christmas. Each year the postal service employs thousands of extra people in temporary jobs and they don’t expect Christmas 2010 to be any exception. As usual, the Royal Mail is anticipating a huge surge in seasonal mail and so will be looking to fill around 15,000 Christmas jobs in 2010.
