£3.69 an hour

When I started the New Deal scheme in 96 ish time I was getting paid roughly 70 pence an hour working out in the fields. Young people get grabbed by the bollocks. I know some who still work there getting around a 100 quid a day. You can't really beat the system
 
As bad as £3.69 seems if we didn't have a minimum wage employers would pay less than that and have people working ridiculous hours just to live.

Surely it should be a minimum for everyone not just depending on age?

Afraid not mate.

It is different mate, they think a 16year old has no responsibility's and possibly a 30 year old may have a family, house, Kids and a dog so he's on £6 +
 
That's why most kids today just wait until 18 and claim benefits free money, council tax paid on your free flat etc and they don't have to get out of bed, well once a fortnight to scratch on
 
When I was an apprentice i earned roughly £2 an hour, my company took me on after i finished it but my wage has just around doubled. Im 20 and Im stuck on peanuts for wages, I may as well claim jobseekers then work 45 hours a week.
 
My daughter is wiping arses (literally) for nothing. I'm pretty sure she shouldn't be and is being exploited.
