The idea that working in a school canteen or a care home can be compared in any way with collecting bins - and should be paid the same - is just ridiculous. Equal pay for the same job? Fair. Equal pay for completely different jobs? Unfair.

Dear oh dear, have you finished your little virtue signal yet, or are you ready for a grown up conversation? Nothing to do with importance (although you’ll find garbage collection is vital for public health). Bin collecting is harder physical labour so pays more. That’s it.

Good grief. No one said they were less or more important. It’s a price for doing the job. Footballers and pop stars aren’t “more important” than care workers but you’re not calling for care workers to earn the same as them, are you? (Or are you?)

You seem really nice though. And very clever. Really, really clever.
