Wages as well

Quote:
Pay growth has picked up for the first time in more than a year, the latest official figures show.

Regular pay grew at a faster-than-expected annual pace of 5.2% between August and October, the Office for National Statistics (ONS) said, with wages continuing to grow faster than prices…

… Private sector pay grew at an annual pace of 5.4%, the ONS said, while in the public sector it was 4.3%.

Sometimes, we all have to take a hit for the good of the country. The sacrifices that you and I have made on pensions pale into comparison with those of our forefathers.
