Av monthly wage in UK for manufacturing = for semi skilled = £1497
If you use UK min wage instead (more likely) then that becomes £1010 @ £6.31 per hr
What isn't available are the costs associated with employment in both countries - taxes etc - and reducing those is really what Govt should be doing
