[QUOTE="Breakthru, post: 7612307, member: 15664"] Wages in the private sector have stood still since 2004/08. Naylor Farms now paying £20/hr to packhouse staff and £20 a day to turn up weekdays £30 for weekend days. B of E was expecting a wee bit of inflation this year and for it to subside next year. Take out the EU and antipodean workers and there is a shortage and their forecast is well off the mark. Everything I see and buy is between 20 and 100% up. Carrot and donkey, the only way to get people off the benefit treadmill is for work to pay much more. That is happening now. Flip side is half of them are unemployable. [/QUOTE]
