Will the Conservatives scrap the minimum wage?
They can’t do or change everything at once it would be chaos. To scrap the minimum wage on the current system would result in people working on lower wages and being topped up by welfare. This would save business at an unaffordable cost to the government so no they will not scrap it. However in these difficult times businesses are struggling so they will not raise the minimum wage as the knock-on effects will lead to increased unemployment or businesses going under.
