Out in the cold

Sir: Your leader (8 April) encourages pub- lic sector workers to take a pay freeze. As a GP I would be delighted to, as long as I also had a work freeze.

In the meantime, I gaze enviously at the private sector, with its company cars, clos- ing hours, ability to say no, free nights and weekends, share options, and proper per- formance-related pay.
