U.K's pay gap grows

http://www.bbc.co.uk/devon/content/images/2007/11/20/oldway_mansion_465x349.jpgThe united kingdom 1% takes home 10% of the nations earnings while the poor 50% take 18% between them. The top 1 % pay has increased 3% while the poor 50% of peoples pay have decreased 1%. This information was given by the resolution  foundation thinktank.Organizations like the resolution  foundation thinktank and Organisation for Economic Co-operation and Development are warning that the results of this gap will not be positive. Labour Leader Ed Milliband has called for a pre-distubution policy to narrow the gap. I think this has to deal with international business because this shows where the U.K money goes toward and also it has a system kinda like America and if they don't do something about it something bad could happen.
