Google is your friend if the OP had just put "minimum wage UK" in to
google they would have got this below so if you are over 22 and not
getting £5.35 a hour
( here in the usa that like over $3 more then we get in minimum wage
in the highest rate state.)


There are three levels of minimum wage, and the rates from 1st
October 2006 a

* £5.35 per hour for workers aged 22 years and older
* A development rate of £4.45 per hour for workers aged 18-21
inclusive
* £3.30 per hour for all workers under the age of 18, who are no
longer of compulsory school age.


also with that you get what like £854 a month on min wage. when the
income tax hits for 300 that 554 left
so in East London £290 - £390 (single) for to rent a Flat
Average weekly grocery bill (including food, basic laundry and
toiletry items for 1 person) £30
so whats the big deal you can live in london on min wage better then i
can live in portland oregon usa on min wage
so again i got my passport i can cook where is the job i can be there
in two weeks
no joke
