    What if you did increase the wage in the hospitality sector? The consequences of this is that it’ll draw people from other sectors there? How much do you pay per hour to your staff Mick? Those warehouse staff may could be attracted by the higher pay elsewhere? Just an example.
    Also how will the hospitality sector pay for this? Increased prices for food and drink which we the customers have to pay?Then what if that puts you off eating out? What damage will this have if everyone did this. There’s a long term and short term damage as well as needing a short term and long term solution. It’s not as simple as just saying ‘yeah they should increase the wages’, when there’s nobody left to do it. There’s two obvious thing that’s caused this.

    How much do we pay for gas compared to rest of Europe? Can someone find out for me?

    In my town Regis businesses have to pay more or they don’t get the staff to operate - simple. I would rather pay our staff £15 per hour and get really get decent staff. My choice but lots are following!

    I hate the fact where businesses either pocket the tips or are reliant on tips making up staff wages. My view is staff should give a fantastic service as given so why should they expect a tip! Does anyone tip you or me for going the extra mile?

    Many on benefits won’t come off them and don’t blame them as the minimum wage is that low they could actually be worse off or working for nothing. I certainly would not reduce benefits as many genuine people would struggle.

    I am content at paying £15 per hour and getting really good staff as opposed to the minimum wage and staff are not attracted or leave after two days because of stress and any other
    b ull****!

    Famous restaurant in Harrogate called Bettys who are paying for staff to come from Manchester rather than risk closing!!

    Sadly Brexit is too blame as many hardworking EU Nationals have gone home! When people voted Brexit because of immigration they did not distinguish between hardworking EU Nationals and illegals from the likes of Syria etc etc. That’s sad! Even many hardworking Polish are leaving which is sad!
