i think its going up to 5:75 sterling an hour if your over 25, or maybe its already 5:75 i cant remember but its not going to be any less.

The rates from 1 October 2007 are as follows:
adults (which means people aged 22 and over) receive the full rate of £5.52 an hour

a 'development rate' of £4.60 an hour is paid to workers aged 18 to 21 inclusive

young people (those older than school leaving age and younger than 18, you're under school leaving age until the end of summer term of the school year in which you turn 16) receive £3.40 an hour

Apprentices under the age of 19 are not entitled to the National Minimum Wage. Apprentices who are 19 or over and in the first 12 months of their apprenticeship are not entitled to the National Minimum Wage.

i don't know but if it does the cost of living will only go up anyway so it doesn't really matter.

It usually goes up every October in the United Kingdom,
But personally it's not that great and I feel it should be more.

Thank you :)

You shouldn't rely on that to get yourself a rise, work hard and study that way you wont have to settle for minimum wage.
