Normally, economists would expect high levels of employment to lead to increases in average real wages. But the reverse has happened. Indeed, the decline in UK real wages since the financial crisis has been the largest of all developed countries apart from Greece, Mexico, and Portugal. Between 2007 and 2016, annual real wages grew 10.8% in Germany, 9.5% in France and 6.4% on average across the countries of the OECD. In the UK, however, they fell by 2.6%. If inflation continues to erode nominal wages for the next four years, as projected by Office for Budget Responsibility, the period since 2007 will rank as the longest period of earnings stagnation since the 1860s.

How about ....


And I see Boris is winding-up the remoaners. Mention the £350m and they're queuing-up to tell us it's wrong (but without ever putting a true figure on it).

Ignore the troll; don't give him the oxygen of publicity, FFS.

So this is worth watching...

(ff to 15.00 as it zooms in)
... i kind of zoned out quite early on, but the best thing about it is that the lectern sort of blends in with the background, leaving May looking like some sort of colourless Max Headroom.

Every now and then, some 'jazz hands' appear, as if out of nowhere - boy that girl cannot act.

At least it got a bit funny again.
