| I can't find a definitive one for the UK, I have read that we have the longest hours in Europe, typically 48 hours a week. Then I read we average between 34-38hrs, but it didn't count overtime.
I do know that, until Labour took power, we have the lowest average wages in the industrialised world. Thank fuck labour introduced a minimum wage.
Actually its possible that 48 hours was pre labour, where you would have to work that long to get a decent living wage.
Socialism is a philosophy of failure, the creed of ignorance, and the gospel of envy, its inherent virtue is the equal sharing of misery.
