What does your trade union say about this set-up?
I certainly feel you have been treated unfairly, if you have never been given a pay rise, or have been refused one, and your successor is now going to be paid much more than you were.

as i left one job, after training my successor, the boss announced that she could phone me whenever with any queries. i was so irritated that i left a note "explaining my consultancy fees" (3 times current salary). turned out she didn't need to disturb me in my new job after all! (hooray!)
if your chat with your employer doesn't bear fruit, maybe you can devise a way of leaving that will make you feel happy once you've left.
