Wage growth in the G20

[JohnD]

Disappointing to see that the UK has fallen behind so much.

What happened in 2010 that could have triggered the decline?

Are there any clues in the UN report?

suffering the effects of the previous Labour government combined with the financial crash.

Oh, and membership of the EU.

Looking at your own graph the negative decline started 2008, or before for all we know ??

Can some of this lack of growth be down to the abuse of the migrant labour force by wealthy big business who claim Brexit will be a disaster.

Most of the stagnant growth is due to all the moaning being done by remainers, lowering productivity

Any successful country thrives on positivity. The likes of J O"b, John D and their like, have screamed negativity from the roof tops, just so they can say I told you so.

When John D was a boy he would have always had to have the Last say.

You think that criticism of the government's actions causes low pay for ordinary working people?

I don't believe you.

 

[motorbiking]

Just a coincidence of course - that and a massive decline in high paid financial services jobs from 2009

You don't believe that growing markets thrive on positivity?

positivity?

Criticising an inept government is a positive move.

claim Brexit will be a disaster.

CLAIM! Lol. Brexit is a calamity. Wake up bod.

Criticising a Remainer PM and her cronies is not the problem. Its all your doom and gloom

Yes but let's pretend to be good little left wing socialists and just pretend it's not.

Your graph shows no correlation with wage index.

In order to suggest a correlation you would need to overlay the one on the other e.g. overlay immigration on the wage index graph AND repeat the same exercise with other countries.
I am sure that other EU countries have seen similar or greater immigration figures as UK but their wage index indicates a different pattern. Why?
As to the 2008 effect (not your point, I accept) it effected them as well!

Your source for the immigration graph would be appreciated, so that a cumulative figure could be gained for all immigration from EU. Of course, that is only half of the story.
