Full Daily Mail title:
Minimum wage to jump to £6.50 an hour, the first inflation-busting rise in five years with more increases to follow
That is equivalent to $10.83/hour. And more increases on its heels? Some of these Tories (like Osborne) make US Democrats look more conservative by contrast.

A British conservative is more like a left-leaning American moderate.

"The inflation-busting rise"

I stopped right there. Increasing the minimum wage does NOT bust inflation. It's been proven time and time again.
