Announced today the new rates fo the minimum wage;
•The adult rate will increase by 11p to £6.19 an hour
•The rate for 18-20 year olds will remain at £4.98 an hour
•The rate for 16-17 year olds will remain at £3.68 an hour

I reckon that works out at an increase of around £4 a week for an adult on minimum wage and increase of nowt for those under the age of 21..but then of course eveything is cheaper for the those under 21, and most of them are looting and causing riots in their spare time

In a week when Osbourne is about to make massive tax cuts for those earning over 150,000+ per year therefore gaining at least an extra £250 per week.. is this an example of the Tories "we are all in this together" attitude?
