UK law denies the full minimum wage rate to workers below the age of 21.
They pay full price for housing, food, shoes, clothes, transport, medicines and other essentials.
Output of their labour is not sold at lower price.
Legalised age discrimination, exploitation of young workers.

The minimum wage should be just that - the same for anyone who works.
And the state pension should be no less than the equivalent of a 37.5 hour week at minimum wage.
Can anyone explain/justify why not?

Is that their values and beliefs?
It's a disaster for everyone except the business owners.
Can't see the courts overruling it
