What the petition asks
Due to the inflation rate and fuel prices families are struggling with living costs and to beat the inflation rate and it should be raised to £15 to help stay ahead of rising costs.
Because the energy prices and fuel prices are at a all time high and with the inflation potentially reaching over 18% the Government seriously need to look at the minimum wage properly. We believe to keep ahead of the inflation people would need £15 an hour to survive.
