    Raab posted this on twitter a few days ago:

    He deleted it once he realised it shows that real wages are lower than 10 years ago, and stagnated since some kind of major event in 2016 which had significant economic and political impact.

    We're in the slowly boiling frog phase at the moment - bad things are happening, but slowly so the Brexiters aren't seeing them. But they're definitely happening.

      Analysis of real earnings and contributions to nominal earnings growth, Great Britain - Office for National Statistics

      higher in real terms than 2004 well before B'ruin's worldwide bust which caused wages to nosedive and not recover until 2014. Its still higher despite the uncertainty of Brexit.

      Wage rises in nominal terms are pretty much a straight line.
