    Don't I know it. There is no easy way out of this debacle. I get it from both sides. Half of it is that for us to be able to trust those in power they should do as was voted for. And that doesn't mean just the Tories. You would get a more grown up debate in a school playground. People refuse to...

    No it isn't. It would be a stupid decision. The EU wants a deal. We want a deal. But you want the chance by law for us not to be able to make or accept a deal.

    £10 an hour is the stated amount it should go up to. Correct? Someone said the average for the minimum wage is £7.50. A third of this is £2.50 and a third is 33%. Or what do you say it should be if it isn't a tenner an hour? You didn't answer any question. You stated how many US states pay...

    So you do actually agree with what I am saying.

    Yet you ignore most states have a minimum wage less than ours. So yes it helps. But would it help for ours to be 33% higher than it is now?

    So you wouldn't want a deal? Did I really read that right? You would be happy for us to be legally bound to leave without a deal?

    According to a new study..... Put someone like yourself in charge and you would find things to say that disagrees with the previous studies.

    No. Putting a bit of reality to what you make out to be an easy thing to do. How about yourself? If non skilled workers earned nearly as much as yourself would you want more? What would the use be of going to university if there wasn't much of a financial boost for many? It isn't me not...

    It is the only chance they have of winning a GE. If people so pissed off with leaving the EU won't vote for them if it means we stay in who will vote for them?

    Which is £5.80 so don't understand why you champion it so much.

    Depends what the real numbers are. IF more than 50% wanted to stay in the EU why would scrapping Brexit be a vote loser? They didn't have many votes before Brexit either. And many see not carrying out Brexit being a betrayal of democracy. So it depends on how you see the situation.

    Have just looked. The national minimum wage is €7.25 and about 1/3 of the states have it set to this. Only 12 states pay $10 or more. Only 6 states pay $11 or more. Only the state of Colombia is over $11.10. It is $13.25. That is £10.59. So the next highest is $11.10 and that is £8.88

    How about showing where raising the minimum wage by 33% won't cause harm.

    But it was just used as maybe being a good reason to have record high minimum wage. It is nowhere near a living wage.

    Highest ever maybe. But it is $7.25 or £5.80

    Are you saying that a pay rise to £10 an hour minimum wouldn't be a problem for any companies?

    2, Companies going under because they can't afford a 33% pay increase.
