The one thing I can’t stand in the UK is the fact that if your under 18 you get paid a much smaller minimum wage than someone who’s 21 and if you’re 21 you get paid less than someone who’s over 25. People under 18 shouldn’t be paid £4.20 for the same job that an older person would be paid more for. People at 18 can live alone, they shouldn’t be paid £5.90 an hour when someone who’s 25 can be paid a minimum of £7.83 an hour. It allows employers to exploit young workers and causes young people to be pain a lesser amount for doing the exact same job and hours as someone older! 

Pay 18+ the same minimum wage, remove the age differences because someone at 18 could be living alone and need to provide for themselves in the same way someone who’s 21 or 25 does.
