I donno about no money, my brother's a senior charge nurse; he's making his usual 45 an hour, plus now an additional 50.

"LabourSocialism"??

You mean the ones who utterly despise the British working class?

The huge increases in migrants over the last decade were partly due to a politically motivated attempt by ministers to radically change the country and "rub the Right's nose in diversity", according to Andrew Neather, a former adviser to Tony Blair, Jack Straw and David Blunkett. He said Labour's relaxation of controls was a deliberate plan to "open up the UK to mass migration" but that ministers were nervous and reluctant to discuss such a move publicly for fear it would alienate its "core working class vote". As a result, the public argument for immigration concentrated instead on the economic benefits and need for more migrants.

All those medical personel are working for free. Actually their is a mandate that they have to work or be put in a cage.

Just like teachers are so important but it wouldn't make sense to pay them so much when the supply of people who want to be and can be teachers is high compared to the demand. This is pretty basic economic principles i believe.

Nonsense. Many people want to be CEOs but you need to be connected to the Machiavellian ruling class, mercilessly exploitative, and qualified enough to fail upwards.

Without the ceo, the company doesn't exist.

Your lack of understanding invalidates your point. You just don't get it.

All the more reason to pay the C-suite less.

The c-suites are also employees.

The real issue is the boardmembers. The owner class.

The 0.01%.

Dude, what world do you live in? First of all, if the CEO hand't put in the work to build the company in the first place, no one would get any money there to begin with. And the people making the decisions are the most important people. Why do you think some random worker doesn't get as much money? Because he is easily replacable, while the CEO/ management is not.

The rona brings value into focus.
