Minimum wage should be automatically indexed to CPI/inflation.
Otherwise you are giving the poorest in society a PAY CUT.
When we negotiated our contract to supply to the government they readily agreed to index it to CPI – because we spent so long negotiating that we don’t want to do the same thing again next year.
I asked my work for a pay raise in line with what they advertised for the job (£11 – £15 hr) and they said no, the email was a professional worded version of ‘you’re lucky to have a job so shut up’
I’m impressed by the headline.
The BBC are usually a bit too scared to openly state the facts like this. They usually go with something like, “6% rise in worker pay amid inflation worries”.
Maybe they think that Dorries is too distracted mourning Johnson to take vengeance this week?
Any economist in this sub to explain me why during inflation the solution is pay cute ?
But the 1% are seeing record profits. Everything is alright in Tory’s eyes. Just work more hours all of us while the elites having another summer party to celebrate the extra money.
And armed forces 3.75% which is pathetic and nobody seems to be talking about
