And some say MP's are lazy work shirking buggers…

[Mottie]

Mottie voted for Brexit because he thought it would lead to higher pay for British workers……yet here is Mottie moaning about decent pay for British workers

Nudging £70k (without overtime) for pushing a lever back and forth is a little bit more than decent.

My heart bleeds for them.

Anyone employees on here had more than one increase in the last 5 years?

Yes I think a lot of people's earnings have gone backwards over the last 5 years.

Not me personally, but it's true enough for a lot. It's a big issue, well noticed

 

[Mottie]

Yes, over 5 years.

2022 - 2025 is three years in my book.

Are you an employee then?

Train drivers’ dispute likely to end after ‘no-strings’ pay offer

Average salary of a train driver, without overtime, would rise from £60,000 to £69,000 if Aslef members vote to accept

www.independent.co.uk

According to that, the average wage for a train driver (without overtime) would rise from £60,000 to £69,000. I make that 15%.

And different places give yoh different, truer figures. But believe what headlines you want

Right so ignore the Sun, the Daily Fail, the Torygraph and now the independant. Can you tell us which ones we should believe?

Why? I just asked if any employees here had had more than one rise in 5 years. You said you had so are you an employee then?

Struggling to read, or understand ?

But rather than trying to nitpick, why not address the real issue of wages going backwards

Yes it is, I said "in reality" 5 years. No pay rise in 5 years So,

• 0 percent for 2020 to 2021
• 0 per cent for 2021 to 2022
• 5 per cent for 2022-2023
• 4.75 per cent for 2023 to 2024
• 4.5 per cent for 2024 to 2025.

People get jealous for all sorts of reasons.

I see you’re into hair splitting mode again. You didn’t mention employees, you mentioned 'people'. You then mentioned not you personally. I didn’t know whether the 'you' were replying as was as an employee or as just one of the 'people, you mentioned.

And thinking farage is a good example of a worker

So have wages kept up with inflation ?

Or keep nitpicking and avoiding the real issue?

Over £100,000 a month and he doesn't even have to push a lever back and forward.
