No I don’t. Unlike you I also don’t think 2 x £8.21, 2 x £7.70 and 2 x £6.15 all equal £10.00.

No, clearly not. I’m saying that it isn’t going to cause companies wage bills to rise 33%. Not all their staff will be on minimum wage so many employees aren’t going to get a pay rise.

How many companies employment is 100% on minimum wage?

He’s making Diane Abbott look quite the mathematician this morning also.

So if they vote to remain part of the U.K. would you build the bridge?

No, it means you don’t know many people who like gardening and as a grown up I accept that. We’ve met and I can confirm I hate gardening so it’s not unbelievable that the majority of people you know don’t like gardening. What I wouldn’t do though is twist what you said and claim that you said...

Hold up. You’ve just tried to use the minimum wage for under 18’s as a broad stroke for the minimum wage rate and now you’re accusing me of some sort of deception. I quite clearly stated my point. I don’t know anyone who will get a wage rise from this. I’ve said it in plain English. Just admit...

WTF are you talking about. Under what law am I not allowed to make a specific point unless I’m talking about a wider point.

“I’m really struggling to think of anyone I know” Classic Grendull.

No I didn’t. I said no one I know, I’ve never claimed to know everyone over 18. Any chance you can stick to the facts.

One limiting factor wasn’t. People saying it could be done.

Of course there’s also the other points that a decent wage gives people self respect and makes illegitimate means of income less attractive. The potential is there for a far greater impact than just money in people’s pockets.

No you’re not. You’re quite deliberately not distinguishing the correlation between age group and minimum wage for that age group. You’re deliberately blurring the facts and when anyone does that the only point you make is that you don’t have a point.

So you’re talking about a very narrow aspect of the employment window then and using it as a broad stroke. Your argument doesn’t stand up for that simple reason you’re trying to weight it with misinformation.

Double? What do you think minimum wage is?

How many 16 year olds are working? Most don’t leave school now until 18.

I’m really struggling to think of anyone I know who will get a wage rise if minimum wage is increased to £10 an hour and I can’t. Even my nephew who’s 19 left school with minimal qualifications and works in a warehouse stacking boxes gets more than that. Places like Costa coffee will have to...

You mean how “they” said the same when Labour originally brought in the minimum wage.

He is obsessed with bridge building (not the metaphorical type). Then there’s the worlds most expensive slide.

Isn’t a Scandinavian murder mystery who done it drama? ;)
