This is the kind of false crap we can expect from the current Labour. Boasting it has increased the MINIMUM wage. By 77p an hour. That’s about 133.47 per month, increase.

Yet collectively bills have increased by £150 per month.

Feeling better off yet?

Although people losing jobs because of this is a myth, all of this increase and more will be wiped out by the massive increases to energy, council tax, car tax, TV tax, water scam, broadband, phone charges. Why unions still affiliate to this government is beyond me

I remember the days when unions stood for socialist values and fought for working people and didn't pander to the racist zionist right wing now inhabiting the "Labour" party.

Shame about all the ones who will lose (or not find) their jobs as businesses cut costs though. Well done to all concerned.

Neither have the increases. Start on 5th.

But a full time worker on NLW would still struggle to buy a house in most areas. So until someone ties housing affordability to NLW rates instead of a % of local market value, life remains impossible for millions regardless.

How much closer does that bring a person to owning their own place in 2025 ?

Labour's deal is increasing the munimum wage by less than the Tories did?
