Interesting Fact - Equality

I decided this one is perfect on International Women's Day: Acccording to the UK Government’s own figures, women working for the Conservative minister responsible for closing the gender pay gap are paid an average of around £2 per hour less than men.

(The department, which is responsible for matters covering equality, recently announced plans to “name and shame” companies who did not pay men and women equally. In the UK male civil servants earn £22.30 a hour on average at the Department of Education but women make just £20.54.

Yet another case of "do as I say, not as I do".)
