I agree, we should raise the minimum wage to £48 an hour.
His constituents "that matter". He almost said the quiet part out loud
Get fucked Jeremy you utter, utter twat.
100k is not a huge salary. That's barely enough to survive in some cities.
There is not a single British city where £100k is barely enough to get by.
Percentile points from 1 to 99 for total income before and after tax
The 96th percentile was £97,200 in 2021/22.
Just to add more stats supporting your point, the UK personal finance website has a good set of summaries taken from UK gov data, £100k would put you in the top 10% of earners even in London (well above this everywhere else). 2023 data this time.
Ardent rubbish.
