I have sent my email. I think we need these minima to protect salaries. I love my job, but I need to afford to live as well! I really dont want to be forced to choose between my job and whether I eat. Plus how is this going to look to future archaeologists? If rising university fees doesnt put them off, this might and we may face a skills shortage in the future. Im not asking for a humungous pay rise, I am all for realistic salaries but I appreciate that times are tough. But the prospect of actually cutting salaries is just hugely worrying
