As per the link above child care is frequently government funded by the free 30 hours which pays £4.08 an hour from THE GOVERNMENT. That is about 1.50 an hour below outer London costs for child care.


Care workers are frequently indirectly paid by the government. But the private sector subsidise them.

cant share but you get to pay >£100/week to fund Government care home occupants.

Same for home care.

Although the government said this:

The government is coming under fire this morning for the decision not to give care workers a pay rise, after it announced a pay increase for almost a million public sector workers workers.

Policing minister Kit Malthouse told BBC Radio 4’s Today programme that social care workers would have to rely on increases in the minimum wage to improve their pay.

Malthouse said:

The vast majority of social care workers are paid in the private sector so our ability to influence pay rates there is limited.

He said that - apart from “nationalising the entire thing” - the minimum wage rate was the best tool the Government had to recognise the efforts of care workers.

Everybody looks at people who work in social care during coronavirus and thinks they have done a fantastic job in very, very difficult circumstances. But [the minimum wage increase is] the mechanism by which we think we can increase pay in that sector.

Although the government said this:

Well they could easily raise the 30 hours funding, that is totally under their control.

They could also pay more for care and as 56% of care home residents are funded by the Government, Council or NHS they could ask the supplies to up the wages as part of the supply agreement.

Probably my local GP who locked down the surgery for fear of Covid-19 who earns about £200K p.a. Whilst front line nurses earning £30K pa facing Covid-19 get feck all. Sounds about right.

Maybe you could give some money to nurses yourself if you are so moved by their plight?

Real ones, not the 'nurses' several people on CUK give money to when working away...

I'm a permie, I already give over almost everything I earn to the plight of others through PAYE thanks.

The rest goes to the ex-wife.

What's left pays for a sleeping bag and a doorway.

Because that's not a great way of addressing inadequate pay.
