Nigel Farage suggests young people on minimum wage earn too much
"From reproductive rights to climate change to Big Tech, The Independent is on the ground when the story is developing. Whether it's investigating the financials of Elon Musk's pro-Trump PAC or producing our latest documentary, 'The A Word', which shines a light on the American women fighting for reproductive rights, we know how important it is to parse out the facts from the messaging. At such a critical moment in US history, we need reporters on the ground. Your donation allows us to keep sending journalists to speak to both sides of the story."
"The Independent is trusted by Americans across the entire political spectrum. And unlike many other quality news outlets, we choose not to lock Americans out of our reporting and analysis with paywalls. We believe quality journalism should be available to everyone, paid for by those who can afford it.Your support makes all the difference."
"There's an argument the minimum wage is too high for younger workers. Particularly given that we've lowered the level at which NIC [national insurance] is paid to 5,000 a year. So do one or the other, do one or the other either lift the cap at which NI is due, or lower the minimum wage for young workers."
The Independent emphasizes on-the-ground reporting across issues such as reproductive rights, climate change and Big Tech, funded by donations to keep journalism free of paywalls. The outlet highlights investigations like the financials of Elon Musk's pro-Trump PAC and a documentary, 'The A Word', focused on American women fighting for reproductive rights. The Independent asserts that quality journalism should remain accessible and donor-supported. Reform UK leader Nigel Farage suggested the minimum wage may be too high for younger workers, noted the NIC threshold now set at £5,000, and indicated abandonment of previously planned tax cuts and uncertainty over the pensions triple lock.
