Why is the past relevant at all? Right now, is somebody able to live off minimum wage no matter where they live in the UK.
My guess is that a single male on minimum wage living in my area would be completely ****ed.
Is that good? Is it worth performing mental and statistical gymnastics every night on a Cardiff message board to stick up for that situation?
No they don't, but saying 'none of the lowest paid' are better off after inflation is wrong. I don't see the issue in providing data to challenge it. I'm the first to admit there is a great wealth of statistics to look at, but if you are supportive of the minimum wage, then presumably you view it as a good thing that it has risen at twice the rate of inflation in the last 10 years, no?
