今天周四的Metro第6页写了,说英国有1900万人年薪低于9500镑,你信吗?
具体是:pay below 9500 pound at some point between 2010 and 2013
英国有投票权的是6400万,这是英籍!
加上永居的人数会多一些,不知道EU的人来英国工作,并且低于9500镑的人在不在这个范畴里面呢?
Britain ranked 13th out of the 28 EU member states for overall poverty - the proportion of people falling below the poverty line,也就中等水平!我不知道1st是是差的(穷的)还是最好的,反正英国都是在中游!英国的平均工资是EU是前二位,不是德国就是英国最高,没想到低于poverty line的比例是这么高!
具体一些是
1 some 60% of those living in single parent households and
2 46% of those in single adult households
3 pensioners, at 40%, were more likely to fall below the threshold compared with those aged under 65!
