Living wage

City already pay directly employed staff the living wage. Now they are renegotiating with all suppliers to ensure they include a living wage provision. The Club should be congratulated on this excellent initiative.

What exactly is a living wage? Isn't it subjective?
"Like all bullies, they've just found out that there is a much bigger guy in town, someone who is richer and more powerful than their worst nightmare. And this smiling Arabic assassin is intent on stealing all the treasures they've nicked off everyone else, and pulverising them into commercial and footballing oblivion as he does so."

No. It’s set by the independent Living Wage Foundation. A number of businesses voluntarily sign up to it. It’s obviously higher than the Government set minimum wage which is compulsory.

Good on them. A bit of decency in times of profit maximisation.
